They banned the Kuban

Activists of the Interregional Public Organization "Orthodox Union" achieved a restriction on the show in the cinemas of the Krasnodar Territory of the film directed by Lars von Trier "Nymphomanca", Yuga.ru reports. The film is prohibited for showing in all municipal cinemas. The leaders of private cinemas are recommended to refrain from the public show "Nymphomaniac" or demonstrate the film only after midnight.

"It is recommended that the leaders of all the film organizations of the region pay attention to the repertoire plan of February and March of the current year, in which socially significant films intended for the family, youth and children's audience should become priority," the Ministry of Culture of the region says to the MOO appeal.

In the appeal of the "Orthodox Union" the film was called pornographic. "Today, when the country's leadership is taking all measures to improve the atmosphere in society, the state is spent considerable funds on patriotic and moral education, when the Governor of the Kuban Alexander Tkachev announced a course to revive moral and spiritual values ​​in society, the struggle for a large family is conducted for Russia, the owners of cinemas are released for a wide screen of inflamed pornographic pornographic pornographic The imagination of a foreign director! ”, Activists are indignant.

The film is divided into two parts at the request of film distributors. Von Trier himself did not approve that the full picture was reduced from five and a half to four hours, but admitted that this was necessary for its full release. The director also forbade cutting outright scenes from the film, but allowed the distributors to "smear" the image elements that they will consider obscene.

The first part of the "nympho" was released in Russia on February 13. The show of the second part will begin on March 6. So far, the first and only European country where the authorities tried to ban the show of the film became Romania. However, the decision on the ban was revised and the film was allowed to release in the 18+ category. With the same age -related restriction, the tape is shown in Russia.

In May 2012, Cossacks and Orthodox activists tore off the opening of the ICONS exhibition in Krasnodar , prepared by the galleryman Marat Gelman. About 20 activists blocked the entrance to the Krasnodar exhibition hall, protesting against the "Helmanization of the Kuban." Among them were representatives of the Cossacks, Orthodox organizations, members of the LDPR and the Communist Party. One of the protesters beat the journalist of Novye newspaper Evgeny Titov. 15 people were detained.

The exhibition, which was supposed to be held as part of the All -Russian campaign "Night of the Museums", in advance caused protests by the Russian Orthodox Church. Criticism of the Helman project was made by Bishop of Stavropol and Nevinnomyssk Kirill, who sent the appropriate appeal to Tkachev. Then the press service of the Yekaterinodar and Kuban diocese called for "not allowing the stationary Museum of Helman to appear in the Cossack Orthodox Territory, where the violation and desecration of religion and culture would be built into the norm of life."
