Bara says...

Ages 15+, but every child is different

The mature subject matter involving substance use, paranoia, and intense confrontation requires a level of emotional maturity typically found in older teenagers. Content involving kidnapping and dark, long-term consequences of violent pasts is too heavy for younger audiences.
