Director Diego Kaplan Defends Netflix Film ‘Desire’ From Accusations of Child Pornography
Variety ^ | 6/30/18 | Erin Nyren

Posted on 06/30/2018 7:12:03 PM PDT by Faith Presses On

Director Diego Kaplan has released a statement defending his erotic thriller film “Desire” after a conservative commentator and others online accused it of containing child pornography.

(snip)

Read Kaplan’s statement in full below.

“Despair” is a film. When we see a shark eating a woman on film, no one thinks the woman really died or that the shark was real. We work in a world of fiction; and, for me, before being a director comes being a father.

Of course this scene was filmed using a trick, which was that the girls were copying a cowboy scene from a film by John Ford. The girls never understood what they were doing...Everything was done under the careful surveillance of the girls’ mothers.

Everything works inside the spectators’ heads, and how you think this scene was filmed will depend on your level of depravity."

Such Satanic remarks from the director.

The final product is child pornography, and it doesn't matter if the girls don't understand now. The actress Janet Leigh said that after seeing the scene of herself being murdered in Psycho, she could never take a shower again. That movie will be out there as that girl goes through life, just like sexual photos that some teens take of themselves and send to others and then end up regretting having done so.

And it certainly doesn't matter if the mothers were there. Some parents force their children into prostitution of child pornography, some allow Hollywood to abuse them for money, and these mothers from Argentina might even be desperate for money.

Then most Satanically of all, the director accuses people who are upset and outraged by the child pornography he himself made of being the depraved ones, not those responsible for the movie or the pedophiles who get gratification from the scene. It's a bald-faced lie that "everything works inside the spectators' heads." He deliberately designed and constructed that scene to be child pornography. And as this story notes, it's not just conservatives thinking that. From comments I've seen on different sites, most people who aren't extreme leftists know this is without a doubt child pornography.

How was “Lipstick” made in the 1970’s not child pornography. Or the one with Brooke Shields “Pretty Baby” or some such.

Netflix needs to go under. I already cancelled my subscription when they hired Michelle Wolfe, the unfunny comedian who trashed Sarah Sanders at the WH correspondents dinner.

All media and all of hollywood needs to go under. People need to not just cancel cable, but get rid of the TV, etc. It is all garbage.

Of course this scene was filmed using a trick

See, you right-wing fundamentalist bible-thumping deplorables? Can't you recognize quality art when you see it? Sheesh!

That’s because it was before the law was written.

If the scene is as described it’s child porn.

I agree with your statement. My grandmother was taken from my great grandmother in Mexico when she was 12. This woman told my great grandmother took her in the guise of offering a job sewing. Like you stated due to needing to survive she allowed her to go with this woman not knowing she was lying. My grandmother was taken to a brothel where it catered to well to do clientele, like doctors, lawyers, politicians, & Military. She was physically abuse if she refuse to sleep with them. As she reached 17, a general from the Mexican Army paid the madam a large amount of money in turn no other man is to touch her. The abuse stopped then the same general helped her come to the US legally.

These pedophiles knows exactly what they are doing. This director is hiding behind “Artistic Creative” for his perversion.

Isn’t it usually the case that the children in child porn “never understood what they were doing”?

“It’s just a movie” is not a defense. It could be said of any pornographic depiction.

If there’s any doubt about its status as porn, why not err on the side of decency? Make standards stricter, not looser. Porn permanently damages the participants, the viewers and society.

We just cancelled our Netflix account. The value has declined precipitously since they began their own productions, and hiring the Obamas was just another reason. This disgusting action moved my cancellation from the should do to the must do category. I hope people go to jail over this.

Sexualizing children is fast overtaking polygamy as the Leftists’ latest cause célèbre. Einstein’s quote regarding genius and stupidity is just as accurate in a social context—there is no limit to depravity.

Not exactly. For children who are innocent, conscious knowledge is not the whole issue. It’s a common error by adults to believe children are unaware of sexual meanings, symbolism or motions. Their sexuality is latent, and they definitely comprehend a great deal unconsciously. They may not say, “I feel sexy” but they have been traumatized and will repeat sexual moves or actions or language to re-experience the strange and confusing feelings of the sexual behavior shown them (purposely or accidentally). Any sex motions when forced on a child (even 1 year old) are highly impactful. No doubt the kids in this film are now traumatized, sad, possibly even more if mothers were present, creating an inner conflict and vague guilt. Technically, this is child abuse by the mothers!

I have observed abused children and gave my thesis on causes of child abuse. The less a child has developed in language, movement, intellect, etc, the MORE they are imagining, forming, and processing in their fertile minds. Do not fk with them!

Pedophilia, or paedophilia, is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult or older adolescent experiences a primary or exclusive sexual attraction to prepubescent children.

These lowlife pieces of scum live not only off the acts, but off the fantasies about the acts. Child porn feeds them and further motivates them to violate a child.

However, homosexuality is also a psychiatric disorder, a perversion that seems to be spreading.

Personally, I see all these sexual perversions sick. Anyone that supports them or excuses them is likely one of them.

Wouldn't all of this director's arguments be even more valid in the case of an animated depiction of sexual abuse against children? Is he claiming that an even more-explicit cartoon of similar scenes wouldn't be child pornography, since no actual children were involved?

Ah, homowood, what more can be said about this band of rapists, queer molestors, and pedophiles. They do it, they film it, they are the marketers of deviance.

The queers have international organizations devoted to the rape of young boys—NAMBLA IS but one example. NAMBLA was once welcomed to march in queer parades. They have now gone underground as if these psychos have somehow disappeared.

Hang em in the public square. And that is coming from someone who was molested as a child and had no idea what was going on. That is where I am coming from and he better hope he never meets me.
