Ambiental documentary short, takes a closer, deeper look at the wild parties on the central beach in Split, Croatia, that started to take place every night after the clubs close. The filming took place over several nights, all summed up to six minutes to see glimpses of a giant party of young tourists with no control or authority (the film took place before the police started to make the parties a bit more orderly). Feelings of repetition until decline comes to the forefront as every single party, like a wave on the beach, happens in the same fashion, over and over again while the 'wave' becomes quieter with each stroke.
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.
