          <by role="member" id="1813">Mrs REDMOND (Heysen) (14:45):</by>  I have another question for the Attorney and my explanation to that question will, in fact, form an explanation that might satisfy the Attorney-General, to coin a phrase. My question is: does the Attorney question the Premier's endorsement yesterday in the house in response to a question through the member for Newland about film-maker Mark Herbert (producer of <term>Donkey Punch</term>, the film) as one of an impressive group of professionals suitable for a key role as an adviser at the SA Film Lab? Does this reflect poorly on the Premier's judgment as both leader of the government and Minister for the Arts?</text>
        <text id="200903054199dc23ccb04917b0000545">With your leave, sir, I will explain for the benefit of the Attorney. The film <term>Donkey Punch</term> is rated R, involves extreme violence, drug taking and explicit sex scenes, including the act referred to in the title. The term 'donkey punch'—and I am glad that the young students have left—refers to the act of anal sex where the perpetrator strikes their sex partner in the back of the head supposedly forcing the anal passage to contract and thereby increase the stimulus to the perpetrator. A long way from <term>Storm Boy</term>, Mr Attorney.</text>
