At present, people would identify friends as those they see on the screens of their monitors or phones. This film, directed by Anya Zulueta, explores the issue of social dynamics through a screen: a window screen, and whether it ultimately makes “interaction” mean any less.
The first friends you make growing up in a country like the Philippines are your neighbors. They are the people you can count on any day of the week to play games with. Fast forward to the 21st century: the Philippines is the global social networking capital. The friends you now have are the ones you see on a monitor or talk to at the tap of your finger on a phone. My 2014 Neighbor goes beyond just depicting multiple-screen interactions. It explores the issue of social dynamics through a screen: a window screen, and whether it ultimately makes "interactions" mean any less.

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.
