Our take
A gangster kidnaps a woman and gives her a year to fall in love with him. 365 Days presents that control as romance, alongside frequent sex scenes, nudity and strong swearing. Guns, drugs and further coercion run through the story. We would leave it until R 18+.
Story (may spoil tone)

A mafia boss is shot in the head near the start, with blood visible, and gunfights, threats, and a beating follow. A man also grabs a woman by the neck more than once, and captivity is used to control her

The f-word is constant, in anger and during sex scenes, along with the s-word, a-word, and sexual insults. It is heard across Polish, Italian, and English dialogue

Sex is constant and graphic: oral sex on a plane with a penis briefly visible, bondage while a sex worker performs fellatio, and long boat and bathroom sex scenes with breast, rear, and brief male genital nudity. Sexual talk fills the gaps

Characters drink wine and vodka at parties and clubs, smoke, and snort cocaine. A man and a woman are each drugged against their will, and a lost cocaine shipment drives the mafia plot

A kidnapping, a locked room, and a captor who threatens a young woman keep much of the first half tense and uneasy. Fear and control drive the mood
Sexual violence A woman is kidnapped and chained to a bed while her captor threatens ra…
A woman is kidnapped and chained to a bed while her captor threatens rape, and he gropes her without consent more than once. The film plays this coercion as seduction, and a line about selling children to a brothel is also heard
Bullying / discrimination Women are treated as possessions, and demeaning, controlling language i…
Women are treated as possessions, and demeaning, controlling language is passed off as romance. A woman is also blamed for her clothing after a near-assault in a nightclub

Guns are drawn and fired in several scenes, with a head shot near the start and a few gunshot wounds with some blood. The images are brief but clear

A woman's fear, confusion, and growing attachment to her captor are played as romance, with little care for how unhealthy the relationship is. Controlling behaviour looks like devotion, which can send harmful messages to teens

Talk after watching
- The story paints a captor as a romantic lead. What makes a relationship healthy, and what are the warning signs of control?
- Laura has very little power at first. How does the film show that, and how would you react in her place?
