Summary of reasons for classification: The DVD entitled Anatomie De L’Enfer is classified as: Objectionable except if the availability of the publication is restricted to persons who have attained the age of 18 years. This classification is primarily due to the manner in which the publication deals with matters of sex, both in the form of explicitly depicted sexual activity and in the form of explicit discussion of sexual themes. The publication contains a version of a feature previously classified in video recording format by the Classification Office. The video recording entitled Anatomie De L’Enfer (OFLC No. 400538) was classified as "Objectionable except if the availability of the publication is restricted to persons who have attained the age of 18 years". This decision was registered on 10 May 2004. The video recording was referred to the Film and Literature Board of Review, who classified the publication "Objectionable except if the availability of the publication is restricted to persons who have attained the age of 18 years" with the descriptive note "Explicit portrayal of sexual conduct including use of menstrual blood"(OFLC No. 401365). This decision was registered on 2 September 2004. The version of the feature on the DVD is identical to the video version. tmp9074 Along with the feature, the DVD contains a number of additional moving image and still components, including a number of trailers and a photo gallery of still images from the feature. These did not appear on the video recording. The extra trailer components also contain depictions of violence and attempted suicide as well as sexual activity although these do not substantially alter the dominant effect of the publication. The extra material does not, therefore, warrant a more restrictive classification than that given to the video recording. tmp9074
