According to The Local fr, the traditionalist Catholic lobby group, Promouvoir (Promote) is taking on Fifty Shades Freed and attempting to have the erotic film banned for children under 12.
The group is citing the French film classification rules which allow for a film to be banned for children if it might negatively affect a child’s emotional development.
The group is arguing to French courts that the sadomasochistic relationship featured in the film is inappropriate for young children.
In 2015, it attempted to raise the rating for the first movie, Fifty Shades of Grey, but was unsuccessful.
