Does Germany still have control over its asylum policy? Michael Kyrath disagrees. State failure and loss of control must end. Kyrath lost his 17-year-old daughter Ann-Marie to a Palestinian asylum seeker who stabbed her and her boyfriend multiple times on a train in Brokstedt two years ago. Since his daughter's death, Michael Kyrath has been lobbying the media and politicians for more control and more removals. In Stuttgart, the reporters are on the road with a police patrol policing a knife-free zone, and the Danish Minister of Migration explains how the Danes have adapted their asylum policy. Presenter Julia Ruhs is also in Aschaffenburg, where a child and a 41-year-old man died in a knife attack in January 2025. She visits the daycare group and speaks with the association's chairman. The documentary report under the new banner KLAR explores the question of what needs to be changed in Germany's asylum policy.

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.
