Interned in an orkutian detox clinic and other male virtual, the dependent Jader Bertola, in his last days of life, makes a "download" of his memories for a roommate to write a book telling his story.
Jader Bertola (Marcos Kligman) works as an office junior in his uncle's funeral undertaker. He loses everything, including job and his girlfriend (who was not willing to continue with a guy with no college degree, no car and no shame at all). The boy innocently joins the Internet in search for a girlfriend so he could forget the last one and and eventually becomes an online addicted. He is rushed to a a center for social network and Internet addiction as a terminally ill patient. Almost dead, Jader downloads his Internet memories and asks an almost illiterate and totally troubled roommate to write a book telling his downfall called "From Invitation to a Evil Offline" as a warning to young people who are joining day after day on social networks without knowing they are enrolling in a path with no return. Jader reports all his life, some facts from childhood in the city to adulthood. Instant Messenger, scraps, spans, fakes, a doctor specialized in social network delusions and and all that sort of things are discussed in this entertaining comedy.

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.
