It's worth understanding the meaning and usage of "object" in that context:
    <http://sec.cs.kent.ac.uk/x500book/Chapter.2/Chapter2.htm#2.2%20OBJECTS%20AND%20ENTRIES>

    (aka <http://tinyurl.com/35tpfu>)

as well as remembering that X500 is a standard for distributed telephone
directory databases, not intended for film reviews, employment histories,
audio recordings or other use cases.
