The matter of growing, which we always understand afterward, is driving us far away enough to not having a good farewell. The story begins with a day that Hong Kong experiences a magnitude 4.5 earthquake. It brings almost no impact to the city but a beautiful yet untouchable year to a form-one boy name Kwok Pak Chi. Due to the unadaptable school life and his introspective character, he starts to imagine animals escaped from the earthquake as his friends. However, the more he immerses in his fantasy, the more he is pushed by the reality. With the pressure from his unsatisfying homework, schoolmates’ opinions and caring from others, how should Pak Chi confront himself and his imaginary friends?

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.
