After the death of her father, the headstrong Countess Eva Marie-Luise von Aspach-Ney returns from Berlin to the Saarland. Her father left behind a villa, which is now Eva's only source of livelihood. Due to her chosen path in life, her father's inheritance has been placed in a foundation. Now Eva has to transfer a considerable amount to the aforementioned foundation every year if she wants to keep the villa. The countess and the other residents of the villa, including Trude, the maid of honor, and her husband, janitor Gustav Düppenweiler, are faced with a seemingly impossible financial task. To make matters worse, the conflict with the hermit Philipp Arthur Limberger threatens to escalate. The community must now stick together in order not to lose their beloved roof over their heads.

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.
