Return to the Nest tells the story of a young woman who, following the death of her mother, sets out to find her father, whom she has never met. In 1985, during the Iran-Iraq War, a large-scale operation is carried out to bring 215 passengers from Iran to Turkey. Among these passengers, whose lives have been saved, is a young Japanese girl named Keiko. Keiko falls deeply in love with Zafer, a lieutenant in the special forces stationed at the Turkish Embassy in Iran. However, the war forces them apart. Zafer manages to get her onto the plane heading to Turkey to save her life. But there is one crucial thing he does not know: Keiko is pregnant. After arriving in Turkey, Keiko gives birth to her daughter Yumi.
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.
