Twenty years have passed since the death of Ilaria Alpi, RAI journalist and his cameraman Miran Hrovatin, killed in an ambush in Mogadishu on March 20, 1994. Since then, many mysteries, many false leads, have concealed the truth on the murder, on perpetrators, the motive of the blood. "Ilaria Alpi: L'ultimo viaggio" try turning some new light on the investigation that Ilaria was doing in Somalia on the international arms trade, now that new documents have been de-kept secret, and acquired new evidence. What she found Ilaria Alpi during her last trip? What she was prevented from telling us with that last ambush in Mogadishu?
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.
