"Mer intérieure" is a reflection on perception, where we follow Jamila and Robert, a couple of high-level athletes with visual impairments, during a sea trip on their sailboat. This film explores their unique experience of navigation. The color grading oscillating between blue and red, creates a visual language that moves away from usual conventions, evoking their inner resonances. The soundtrack, composed by Meryll Ampe, combines sounds recorded at sea with repetitive music. This colorimetric and sound treatment creates an atmosphere inviting to feel the nuances of perception at sea.
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.
