Indian Court Blocks 'Blasphemous' Movie Accused of Defaming Catholics

On May 12th, the High Court in southern India’s Kerala state opposed the release of Aquarium, a movie in the Malayalam language. A member of the Sacred Heart Congregation, Sister Jessy Mani, who filed the petition in Delhi High Court, said the movie trivialized the life of Catholic priests and nuns by “portraying them as mere sex toys.” She elaborated, “There are scenes of sexual relationships among the same sex, between priests and nuns, and sex with animals in a highly derogatory manner.” Her complaint also detailed the “offensive” nature of the movie trailer which “depicted the sexual relationship of nuns with two priests and also an emotional relationship with Jesus Christ, thereby clearly tarnishing the reputation of the Catholic Church and its members…” which she claimed would “demoralize priests and nuns.”
