CONTENT WARNINGS

The Melbourne Cinémathèque is currently in the process of formulating a policy on Content Warnings.

We acknowledge that the MPAA rating system often doesn’t provide adequate advice when it comes to triggering content for survivors of violence and trauma.

Because we operate as a membership based society represented by a committee of volunteers this will take time to do properly. We will need to canvass our supporters and negotiate internally the best way we can implement a Content Warning system that is useful, practical and feasible.

In the meantime we are attempting to implement Content Warnings in an ad-hoc fashion on our website.

We have identified a number of issues when it comes to implementing content warnings including the potential for oversight (for example, often we have not seen the films before they screen).

However, for the time being we continue to advise individual viewer discretion.
