It’s more than just adrenaline-infused thrill-seeking. Luuk Sieben’s Neverland depicts the Dutch motocross street culture as a way of life, a niche activity that forges a sense of community amongst fellow riders. Diving head-first into this fast-paced scene, this short documentary conveys what exactly makes these riders repeatedly face risks and push boundaries. Euphoric highs, physical danger and societal taboos are all explored in this loving short, revealing a vibrant and dynamic subculture fueled by camaraderie and a shared passion for life on two wheels.

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.
