The Kuril Islands still remain a mystery to the rest of the world. The popular science film "Land of the People" rediscovers the unique territory of the Kuril Islands, with their unique human and natural wealth. Repeating the route of the first colonists, the viewer will get acquainted not only with the extraordinary beauty of this distant land, but also with the modern inhabitants of the islands, people of outstanding professions, somewhere adventurers, somewhere simply strong and strong in spirit, who live in places far from modern civilization, where there is neither the Internet, nor cellular communication, nor other items of everyday life most familiar to the continent.

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.
