Between 1988 and 1997 in the Chilean State, the screening of the film entitled The Last Temptation of Christ was prohibited on the grounds that it was offensive to the image and reputation of Jesus Christ. This restriction was originally applied by the Film Qualification Council (CCC), an administrative body authorized to approve and/or restrict the exhibition of cinematographic works, by virtue of Article 19 of the Political Constitution of Chile of 1980. The CCC granted permission to screen the film after receiving a second request for rating. However, the Supreme Court of Justice of Chile and the Court of Appeals of Santiago made the decision to revoke the approval. Consequently, the representatives of the work filed a petition with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), which was then submitted to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACHR Court) where it was finally determined that the Chilean State had violated the right to freedom of expression and had failed to comply with its obligations to respect the rights enshrined in the American Convention on Human Rights (ACHR) and to adopt the necessary measures to ensure their rights. guarantee. This report presents a critical analysis of the essential content of prior censorship and the general obligations of states with respect to the ACHR, based on the arguments of the Chilean defense, the IACHR, and the Inter-American Court. To this end, the scope of the prohibition of prior censorship is detailed from a normative study of its regulation in the Inter-American Human Rights System, followed by a methodical analysis of its application in the jurisprudence of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and, finally, of its interrelation with the obligations of Articles 1.1 and 2 of the ACHR. Finally, we conclude by identifying the importance of the judgment in contributing directly to the jurisprudential development of what we now know as "conventionality control".
