Salih is a young teacher assigned to the village of Elaldı. As Salih tries to adjust to his new life in the village, he falls in love with Zeynep, the most beautiful girl in the village. His greatest fear is that Zeynep will be married off, as cousin marriages are common in the village. Trying to find a solution to this problem, Salih writes a petition to the Ministry of Family Affairs. Following Salih's petitions, the ministry takes action and prepares a project to bring order to family life in the village and resolve the existing issues. According to the project, everyone will have a formal wedding, and those who do not marry their relatives will be entitled to receive the deeds to the houses they live in and the fields they cultivate. After beginning to compile a list of those eligible to marry, Salih is met with an unexpected outcome. According to the list, people are separated from their loved ones and matched with others, leading to a complicated situation.
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.
