The day after Khalid’s wedding ceremony, his elder brother (Khalil) is murdered on suspicion of betrayal. Some of the well-reputed people of the village gather together in the mosque by Abou Maher (the spice shop owner of the village) in order to make a decision on Salimeh (Khalil’s wife and murderer). Although revenge would make his three nephews orphan, it is the only thing that Khalid thinks of. About Maher believes that Salime will be acquitted if Khalil’s charge of betrayal is approved, otherwise, the retribution will be done. Such a possible sentence makes Gishu (Khalil’s daughter) wish that her father would have betrayed her mother. Nasir (barge building laborer) who has been friend with Khalil since childhood begins the investigation.
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.
