A crew of film-makers made the effort to record what reflects the generation gap between the little girl Lisa and the world of adults in her family
One child's soul does not want to reconcile with her surroundings. A crew of film-makers made the effort to record what reflects the generation gap between the little girl Lisa and the world of adults in her family. Part of the continuing conflicts that were recorded occur because of Lisa keeps running away from home. "Why are you always running away? What are you missing?" the little girl hears persistently. However, how is it possible to explain what is comprehensible to her own soul only - what is within the indescribably fragile existence of a child? This is a world surrounded by coarse and brutal realities... How long may the child resist this environment and safeguard her own dream?

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
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.
