Mustafa lost his mother and father on the same day. His father abandoned them for a dancer, and his mother committed suicide that day. The little boy was suddenly left all alone. His father was now an unforgivable criminal in his eyes. He would ask his father to account for the pain he had caused him with the gun he left behind as a memento. But there was no need for that. His grandfather tells Mustafa that his father is dead. In reality, his father had committed murder because of the woman he had abandoned his family for and had been sent to prison. Mustafa learns this truth twenty years later. His old anger is reignited. He goes to Istanbul to find his father. But he doesn't even know who he is looking for. The only thing he can cling to in the corrupt world he has fallen into is love.

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.
