CK is a college dropout who deals weed to get by. Years before, he was casted out by his father, and was left behind by his mother. He is being held captive by his Boss for stealing money from him. He escapes with the help of his friend, Wise. Calvin is a middle-aged taxi driver with a bad temper who is trying to save up money every day for a hopeful future. In a desperate attempt to get away from Boss and his henchmen, CK lets Calvin get him and Wise to the sea, the place constantly appearing in his dreams. Tides turn when Boss and his henchmen finally catch up. With CK pinned down and in trouble, Calvin steps up and faces them, offering them a lump of cash that was meant to restart both him and his son's life together. Having rekindled their relationship with one another, the father and the son face yet another test of faith as Calvin finally confesses the true reason of their journey: to attend CK's mother's funeral.

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.
