Lebanon approved the screening of the 'Barbie' movie after an initial attempt to ban the film for allegedly threatening the country's conservative values. Culture Minister Mortada on 09 August 2023 had asked Lebanon's General Security agency, responsible for the country's censorship decisions, to ban the 'Barbie' movie from cinemas after initially delaying its release date, saying it contradicts the 'moral and religious values as well as the principles of Lebanon,' as well as promoting 'sexual deviance and transsexuality'.
