Kimi

Parents need to know that Kimi is a mystery thriller -- directed by Steven Soderbergh -- set in a contemporary tech world with themes around sexual assault and mental illness. When Angela Childs (Zoe Kravitz) uncovers a serious crime while working for a mega tech firm, she is determined to bring the culprits to justice, even though it puts her own life in danger. Audio recordings of a sexual assault are heard repeatedly and blurred footage shows a woman being punched and having her throat slit. There are further instances of violence involving kidnapping, a character being drugged, stabbings, and people being shot dead with nail guns -- including from close range. Angela is living with agoraphobia and other unspecified mental illnesses, which have been heightened by the COVID pandemic. She does strike up a sexual relationship with her neighbor, Terry (Byron Bowers), who tries to help her overcome her issues. The two of them are shown having sex and Angela is seen topless as she gets out of bed. Variants of "f--k" are routinely used, along with "s--t," "a--hole," "d--k," and "bitch." The tech company that Angela works for produces a product similar to the voice-controlled smart speakers available in the real world. Other real-life brands are referenced or visible throughout the film.
