Government official Victor Letayev oversees road construction in the Perm region. He is a cynical kind, accustomed to always getting things done, and getting them done his way. He loves his job, he is good at it, and he has zero interest in anything else. His motto is, “I used to chop firewood for a living. Everyone needs firewood; you can’t heat a home with art or culture.” Victor’s attitude changes when art and culture become areas of priority for his region’s development. Now, in order to keep his job, Victor has to study Perm region’s cultural heritage. Hoping to make things easier for himself, he takes lessons from art historian Marina. Will she succeed in imposing cultural awareness on a pragmatic government functionary?

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.
