Suspected sex films to hit the new EU platform on the video portal YouTube
better it would not be eligible for the makers can: with a minor scandals are procured, the new YouTube channel of the European Union's unexpected popularity. Some EU officials had dared to loosen his tie knot a bit. They cut together for a publicity campaign for the European film of MEDIA scenes from award-winning European films to emotional issues such as love, grief and friendship - and, more than Geck, about sex.
In the clip, which runs on YouTube under "Film Lovers Will Love This," will be shown in 44 seconds 18 love scenes. be hectic as things torn from the body, it gets a little moaning and shaking the dishes to the rhythm of the body. Anything with wit and without a Fitzelchen meat is visible from the "wrong" place. The whole thing bothered anybody for a long time. The commercials were shown at the Berlinale in February and since then also be seen on the relevant EU sites. Mid-June, they were - and still to the exclusion of the wider public - on YouTube.
Only as of 29 June, the EU's YouTube channel has been opened officially, British press discovered the bone of contention among the nearly 50 videos presented - worldwide media attention from Europe to the USA and India followed. Mostly it was factual, easily amused reporting and there was consent. Of conservative Page was also a serious concern - to condemnation of the spot as "pornography" - expressed.

If Godfrey Bloom, member of the European Parliament critical of the European UK Independence Party says the video is so embarrassing, "like watching an older relative, who tries to be cool," one may, however, almost smiling. The conservative blue and yellow design of the EU-YouTube website shows, in fact, as the equivalent to the gray official suit - and also the educational film character of most videos on EU-related issues of immigration and changes in the sugar market will elicit little young viewers behind the stove .
The knee-jerk outcry that for something silly respectively Tasteless or - Oh my God - yes again indecent tax money would be wasted, however, is entirely in the void. Rather, here the EU has even a lesson for cheap, effective advertising presented: The Films - cut from existing material - each cost 350 €, YouTube offers for private users as its services for free. Within a week of "Sex" clip came from a few thousand to over 3 million hits to date. A sad fate as the lonely video on the YouTube channel of the British government, which since February has not yet found the 300 spectators. Another argument for the slogan of the EU's commercials: "Come together".
