The Australian Film Classification system is a government-regulated process that categorizes films and video games based on their content. It aims to inform viewers about the suitability of media for different age groups, helping parents make informed choices for their children. The classifications range from G (General) to R18+ (Restricted), with specific guidelines for each category. The classification process is managed by the Australian Classification Board, which reviews submissions and assigns ratings based on factors like violence, language, and sexual content. This system ensures that audiences are aware of the themes and material present in films and games before viewing.
