THIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED - in Theaters September 2006 - SIGN THE PETITION!

"This Film Is Not Yet Rated" - is a breakthrough documentary from Academy Award nominated director Kirby Dick and The Independent Film Channel about an unprecedented investigation into the MPAA film ratings system.

The MPAA ratings system, using letter grades G, PG, PG-13, R, and NC-17, has become a cultural icon. But behind its simple façade is a censoring process kept entirely secret. Board members are anonymous; deliberations are private; standards are seemingly arbitrary.

This Film Is Not Yet Rated asks whether films are rated equally and examines the most controversial ratings decisions in history. It also tries to uncover Hollywood's best-kept secret: the identities of the ratings board members themselves. The result is a movie about movies unlike any other movie ever made.

Opens in select theaters September 2006. Go to the website listed below for theater listings, to view the trailer and SIGN THE PETITION AGAINST CENSORSHIP!
