The South African film CONFESSIONS OF A YEOVILLE RAPIST (nice to meet you, please don’t rape me!) that was broadcast by the VPRO on 1 June is a sinister violent film of the lowest sort, full of disgusting language, littered with rapes, with viciousness and with nudity.
I ask myself whether a film which displays such devilish perversity should be allowed in Holland. The VPRO is obviously not concerned with morality and the mental health of society. Respect for fellow human beings, and particularly for women, is sorely lacking in this film.
The film preaches the complete rejection of authority. Everything is allowed. Stupid types and also the youth are easily influenced.
We demand to be spared this sort of film that is presented as “documentary” and as “entertainment”.
That the reality in South Africa is unfortunately like this does not change our opinion.
