God’s Own Country censored on Prime Video

I thought it was a joke, but I was wrong.

We had spoken about this beautiful movie and the touching story of the two characters in this post, and invited you to watch it on Prime Video by Amazon, but apparently, in the USA the streaming service has thought that some scenes had to be censored.

Dear friends in USA, God’s Own Country appears to have been censored on @PrimeVideo (Amazon Prime). Until this is investigated please do not rent or buy on Amazon Prime. It is not the film I intended or made. I will report back ❤️

Some twitter users reported that two important sex scenes had been cut from the streaming version of God’s Own Country in the US, scenes that were not removed from the version that can be purchased on the same streaming service.

This is awful! How did they censor it?

Apparently, Prime Video hasn’t replied yet to explain the reasons behind this, but we are sure the answer won’t be too late.
