Manila is a high-demand model. One day, her car breaks down on the way home and she meets Angelo and Mike, two nasty women traffickers. They are looking for new women for their brothels and harass Manila. She puts up a desperate fight, but the two pimps are stronger: they rape Manila. From now on, Manila's life no longer runs as usual. She is plagued by nightmares in which the two pimps haunt her. What's more, she can no longer have relationships with men. In the middle of sex with her boyfriend, visions of rape haunt her again and she kills her boyfriend with great satisfaction. She realizes that only women can give her pleasure. She hires a call girl, but this meeting also ends in death as she discovers the remains of her boyfriend. Manila knows that only revenge on her tormentors can turn her life around. In the red light district of the two pimps, a thrilling final battle ensues, which turns out differently than either side had hoped...

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.
