I have no strong opinions except for

Something that filmmakers should stay away from

I oppose this logic. Anyone can make a film about anything they like. If you don't like it, don't watch it.

"Stay away from this subject" hinders artistic thinking.

Check out this scene from Priest:
(Trigger warning: Uncomfortable and subjects of incest and rape)

https://youtu.be/8MC5N8h59zY

The plot is a priest is struggling with his own feelings of homosexuality and becomes aware through confession that one of his congregation is raping his underage daughter.

The guy flat out argues why it's okay that he does it, he's almost bragging, the Priest has no idea what to do. It's a brilliantly acted and directed scene and it's uncomfortable as fuck. Artistically it's a masterpiece and the movie has balls.

Saying "You're not allowed to make that film because I find its subject uncomfortable" is totally the wrong tact. Just don't watch the film.
