The film takes a transnational marriage family in Najiaotun, Nalong Village, Baisheng Township, Napo County, on the China-Vietnam border as an example, explaining that the border is a geographical boundary rather than an emotional boundary. In the turmoil of the country, emotion is the best weapon to isolate the turmoil. Faced with the current situation of the COVID-19 pandemic, although Vietnamese woman Lu Tingmin cannot return to Vietnam, she laughs at life with her Chinese husband and daughter, faces various unfair policies, insists on walking together, bids farewell to the winter of 2020, and welcomes the spring of 2021. This is not only a small family saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, but also a big country saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. In the rolling tide, the country takes the family to move forward together, and the country continues to influence the family as it moves forward.
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.
