‘Gedachten aan de regen' is a coming-of-age / psychological drama film about 22-year-old David. He is trapped in the room of his head, along with his negative self-image, Ego. As a teenager, he locked himself in this mental space to protect himself from the harsh outside world. On his 22nd birthday, David thinks back to a painful childhood memory. He tries again to look for a way out and to open up. However, Ego is convinced that only death offers an escape from the chaos of the room. By seeking support from his partner, friends and parents outside the mental room, David tries to express his feelings and acknowledge his past in the hope of escape. In this process, David grows through moments of love, but old wounds are also opened. The tension between David and Ego increases and the question is whether David will succeed in breaking free

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.
