Alcoi Weighs Legal Action After Adult Series Uses Camilo Sesto Mausoleum Footage

Officials say the cemetery permission covered only non‑explicit mourning shots.

Overview

  • City hall announced it is studying legal action against the producer after cemetery B‑roll was later used in a gay adult film without municipal knowledge or consent.
  • The permit request, processed by the Alcoy Film Office, described an actor walking through the cemetery and sitting near a grave, with no names shown and no sexual content.
  • Opposition party PP accused the government of allowing an inappropriate shoot at a memorial site and demanded explanations and tighter authorization protocols.
  • Press reviews note the promotional video includes non‑sexual images from the San Antonio Abad cemetery, while explicit scenes were filmed at other locations.
  • The municipality will revise its draft filming ordinance to explicitly bar adult productions in public heritage spaces; the cemetery shots were recorded in December 2024 before the mausoleum was finished and before the ashes were transferred.
