Muhammet Arslan is the director of Kanlı Postal, which brings the events that took place in Diyarbakır Prison on September 12 to the big screen. The script, which was written after interviewing prisoners who were subjected to torture during that period, uses the real names of the characters. The film, which focuses on the prisoners tortured by "Captain Esat" while serving at Diyarbakır Prison, stars Mesut Akusta, Turgay Tanülkü, Nevin Efe, and Mihriban Er in the lead roles. Muhammet Arslan, who began filming in 2012, also serves as the screenwriter for the same film.

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.
