Ozawa movie to premiere on Thursday

Maria Ozawa (JP)A movie starring Japanese pornstar Maria Ozawa, better known as Miyabi, is set to premiere on Thursday after the Film Censorship Institute approved its screening.

Ody Mulya Hidayat of Maxima, the film’s producer, said Tuesday the movie, titled “Munculik Miyabi” (Abducting Miyabi), was rated under parental guidance suitable for youths.

“The film went through the censorship institute almost uncut,” Ody said as quoted by tempointeraktif.com.

He added there was no seductive stage act by Miyabi displayed in the movie. “It’s a comedy movie,” he said.

Officials at the censorship institute have promised to help promote the movie, Ody said.

The plan to produce the film sparked uproar last year. The controversy climaxed with interim tourism and culture minister Muhammad Nuh banning Ozawa from visiting the country for shooting.

Her responses to the judges’ questions have upset many people, particularly religious leaders in her home province. In the contest’s final stage, she was asked why she was not wearing a headscarf like previous contestan
