A group of young individuals in their mid-20s Kwan, Ploy, and Kawin who, in their newfound and unconventional love, look for a sense of belonging as the world comes to pause. In stillness, they face themselves and confront their personal identities in the shadows of family quarrels and the unforeseen future of their youth and the world. Kwan narrates a personal reflection on a mythical story her mother once told her. A woman who vowed to be born as a Dalha flower for the sake of love. As the myth threads a connection in Kwan's memory of her absent mother, Kwan comes to understand her conflicted identity. Following her mother's footsteps, she decides to embark on a journey in search of change.

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.
