Makers of a sexual coming-of-age film aimed primarily at an audience of young women have expressed disappointment after British film censors gave it an 18 certificate rather than a 15.
The Diary of a Teenage Girl tells the story of 15-year-old Minnie who starts a sexual relationship with her mother’s 35-year-old boyfriend.
Producers of the film have been battling against an 18 certificate, arguing that it is exploring female sexuality in an open and honest way, and that other films featuring underage sex – Kidulthood, Fish Tank and The Reader – were all awarded 15 certificates.
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) disagreed and gave its final ruling late on Wednesday.
Sundance 2015 review: The Diary of a Teenage Girl – today I slept with Alexander Skarsgård
“We are massively disappointed,” said Wahida Begum of Vertigo Releasing. She said the BBFC had missed the point of its film and its message.
“The film explores female sexuality with boldness and honesty in an unexploitative manner. In an age where young women are still continually being sexualised and objectified we feel The Diary of a Teenage Girl sends a very positive, reassuring message to young girls about female sexuality and body image.
“It is a shame that audience will not be able legally see a film that was made by women for women of all ages.”
Begum also claimed that the decision had been made after the film was viewed only by men at the BBFC.
The BBFC issued a statement denying that. It said: “The Diary of a Teenage Girl has been classified 18 for ‘strong sex’. The sex scenes and references are too numerous and sustained for a 15 classification to have been defensible. It is not true that the film has been seen only by men at the BBFC.”
The San Francisco-set American film has been popular on the festival circuit and won a sidebar section at the Berlin film festival rewarding films targeted at older teenagers. At Edinburgh it was named best international feature film.
Reviews have been positive. After seeing it at Sundance in January Brian Moylan gave it four stars for the Guardian. The Hollywood Reporter critic called it a “gutsy, intimate and assured debut” by director Marielle Heller, adding: “This will be one of the significant indie titles of the year and a good commercial bet – a film many young women will see more than once.”
In her submission to the BBFC Heller said a girl’s coming of age was rarely seen on screen or given the same treatment as a boy’s.
“The media has endlessly told teenage girls that boys are the only ones who are going to want sex. Girls are going to be the ones that don’t want it. Girls are going to want to withhold it until they decide that they are willing to give it to the guy.
“Nobody tells a girl what it’s like if you want to have sex. What if you’re a teenage girl who wants to have sex?
“Sexuality is something we’re both experiencing and so if one side’s perspective is reflected, the other side should be reflected too. Women’s stories should be explored and celebrated too.”
The film is based on a graphic novel by Phoebe Gloeckner and stars British actor Bel Powley (known for MI High and Benidorm) as Minnie, with Kristen Wiig as her mother and Alexander Skarsgård as the boyfriend.
It is due to be released in the UK, with the 18 certificate, on 7 August.
