After the loss of a sister and the possible end of his relationship, Marcelo, a freelance reporter from Maringá, tries to get back to his routine when he discovers he is suspected of a crime that implicates a longtime friend. This friend is Edgar, owner of an investigation office for whom Marcelo sporadically provides espionage services. Suspecting that his memory was erased, he uses his investigative flair and the time he has left to unravel this mystery. Marcelo follows fragments of probable investigations and clues given by a possible criminal until he finds himself on the trail of a gang that erases memories on demand. Is this gang involved in this crime? Had he gone overboard in his search for a scoop? The count is open, Marcelo only has one or two days left, having to face the fruit of human pride, which steals not only moments, but the hopes of an entire life.

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.
