ELSKER DET FOR DIG is a poetic and investigative documentary about transgender communities in Denmark. In an old-fashioned bathing establishment, we meet them, soft and bathrobe-clad, wherever they are in life; from the young newly in love from northern Jutland, to the childhood friends from Odsherred and the meeting between two parents with small and adult children. The surroundings encourage self care and Nordic traditions of well-being but also mirror a very old-fashioned healthcare system. In Denmark, access to treatment (such as hormones and surgery) is still limited, and often achieved through exhausting and humiliating processes. The internal sharing of knowledge, humor and care are therefore vital in transgender communities.

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.
