A short film which displays dialogues composed exclusively of fragments of real chats of the neo-Nazi group FKD, which was led by a 13-year-old boy operating under the nickname Commander. The film sets the dialogues in fictional situations in the real world, putting them in the mouths of actors – children. The chilling atmosphere of the conversations, in which children talk publicly about sex, death and hatred, balances between absurdity, humor, fear, and horror. These little adults are – at least verbally – taking responsibility for the world and our lives. When the verbal pressure and manipulation, children are exposed to virtually, are transferred to public space and given a physical form, the resulting image raises many disquieting questions…

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
