n the near future, humans can extend their lives by transferring their conscience into humanoid robots. Model Adam is the first of it's kind, a brand of humanoid robot designed to believe they have a soul and consciousness. Humans found these models unsettling, many of these humanoids were deactivated and sent to the fire to die. The remaining models found refuge in the Tunnel of Shadows. Who doesn't want another chance at life right? Finn (50's), is dying, he has a dark past and nothing to live for, but he still wants another chance to get things right. He buys an Adam on the black market. It is on day 11 of Adam's occupancy in Finn's home that the dying man finds out who Adam really is
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.)

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.
