If this film were to be rated by MPAA, what would it receive?


I wanted to see this with my Grandma, but she won't really watch anything past a PG-13 rating, wondering if there is any Sex/Nudity/Drugs/Violence/Disturbing Images/Profanity in it. Thanks in advance!

I ended up seeing it by myself, and it was a very good movie. However, for anyone curious, there is no violence/sexuality/drug use etc. The only thing is language. There is around 20-30 uses of the F word, that's about all that I noticed. Hope that helps anyone who's looking!

There were at least 150 uses of the f-word

It's political, and the bad guys are an American corporation.
Therefore, it would get an R rating.
The excuse, of course, will be language and brief nudity or whatever, but the real reason is the politics - it's happened many times before. They have Chamber of Commerce reps on the ratings board. It's how they roll.

The political situation presented is far more complex than 'American co = baddie'.

The subject mater is adult with talk of atrocities, even though none are shown. A rating of 15 is appropriate.

Don't know what it would get in America but I agree with you. BBFC probably would give it a 15.

EDIT: In fact, they did - http://www.bbfc.co.uk/releases/tambi%C3%A9n-la-lluvia-even-rain-2012

Just watched it on Netflix instant play. Glad I only had to read the F word and not listen to it 150 times. That being said, the cross scene had topless native women who sometimes had their hands/arms or hair over their breasts, but sometimes did not. Just be aware of that. Good movie!
