Dark comedy about a german probation officer and some of his clients...
Probation Officer Benno finds in Hotte a real challenge. Shit gets his authority on petty criminals anyway, but Hotte is by far the most cunning rogue ever to enter his office. When Hotte is also given custody of his 2 children Dennis and Jenny, Benno sees red. Under no circumstances may Hotte move with the adolescents to a shared apartment and take over their education. Initially interested only the child support, but slowly he finds pleasure in living together with his children and a permanent residence. And while Hotte makes a sincere effort to rearrange his life, Benno develops an unimaginable energy to prevent just that .

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.
