 In late 1994 the film was banned from theatrical distribution in  Ireland. However, the Irish Film Centre, which is a membership club  and not subject to the same rules as public theatres booked the film  and had it scheduled to screen for a month long run in early 1995.  However the film censorship board threatened legal action if the  film was shown and it was withdrawn. It did eventually get a  screening in the IFC years later to virtually no publicity.
