Instagram said “sorry“Wednesday by the voice of his mother company Facebook after the brief withdrawal of publications sharing the poster of the next film of the Spaniard Pedro Almodóvar,” Madres Paralelas “, which shows a nipple from which hangs a drop of milk.
Very controversial rules on nudity
“We initially removed several posts with this image for violating our nudity guidelines“, a spokesperson for the Facebook group told AFP.”However, we make exceptions to allow nudity in certain cases, such as when there is a clear artistic context. So we’ve reinstated the posts sharing the Almodovar movie poster on Instagram, and we’re so sorry for any confusion.“, she added.
The withdrawal of the images had caused controversy on social networks and the media in Spain. “Shame on you Instagram”, denounced the author of the poster, the Spanish graphic designer Javier Jaén, posting a screenshot of the social network explaining the withdrawal of the image on Monday for not respecting its “rules of use“.
Instagram is regularly singled out for automatic image removal under its very strict nudity and anti-pornography policy. The app claims its rules have evolved and become more “nuanced“, to make exceptions in terms of nudity when it comes to breastfeeding, for example, nudity at events or in art.” Madres Paralelas “, which is due out on September 10 in Spanish theaters, will open the 78th edition of the Venice Film Festival, where he will compete and which is held from September 1 to 11.
