Present day. Artist Natasha is preparing for an exhibition of her paintings. At the gallery, before the opening, she recognizes one of the employees as her former classmate and first love, the musician Igor, and she plunges into memories. The beginning of the 2000s. Young Natasha is torn between the pressure of her rational parents, determined to send their daughter to study law, and her dreams of entering the Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg. A new classmate, the talented musician Igor, helps her believe in herself and take a risk. The young people fall in love with each other, but their happiness is interrupted by a family tragedy. Natasha, not ready to sacrifice her dream for Igor, leaves for St. Petersburg and begins to build her life. The choice made in youth often turns out to be decisive. And the adult Natasha wonders what she should have done if she had the opportunity to turn back time.

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.
