The Film Certification Appellate Tribunal (FCAT) has reversed the Central Board of Film Certification’s (CBFC) order on English film The Danish Girl and directed it to grant UA category certification with parental caution for the movie. This will allow the film, which deals with the subject of sex reassignment surgery, to be shown on television.

The CBFC had previously cancelled the scheduled telecast of the Oscar-nominated film on March 26. According to the certification board, the subject of the movie was controversial and unsuitable for children, the Mumbai Mirror reported.

The report quoted a CBFC member as saying, “The whole subject is controversial, and it’s unsuitable to be viewed by children. It talks about a man who wants a sex change and has a genital operation to become a woman. The subject is sensitive and how do you edit a subject like that?”
