What is stronger: the death of a loved one or a state propaganda? The war between Russia and Ukraine goes. Among the all Russian republics, Buryatia almost immediately found itself as a region with the highest number of dead military. Funerals and zinc coffins have been coming to Buryatia almost every day since February 24, 2022. The government of Buryatia is counting the heroes, posthumously. This is a reflection film from the stories and thoughts of loved ones of the new "war heroes", supplemented by the reality of their life in one of the most depressing regions of Russia. This is scary, but worth to know.

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.
