Russia Issues Warning To Disney Against Distribution Of Its Short Film “Out” Featuring Gay Character

By John F. Heerdink, Jr.

As per reports, Russia’s communications regulator Roskomnadzor warned Walt Disney Co (DIS) against distributing content of its short film, “Out”, which features a gay main character, stating it portrays harmful content to the children in Russia. Disney+ released “Out” in the United States last year.

A letter was sent to Disney noting that it was against Russian law to distribute information which “denies family values and promotes non-traditional sexual relationships” to children.

Even though same-sex relationships are legal in Russia, but a 2013 law bans disseminating “propaganda on non-traditional sexual relations” among young Russians. Disney remained unavailable to a request for comment.
