A socially critical melodrama about overcoming loneliness! It's never too late to give one's life meaning. A lonely elderly woman, Anna Korrer, lives a secluded life in her apartment and hasn't dared to leave her front door since her husband's death. When art historian Erwin Kronberger comes to town for an internship at Dr. Eberhard's gallery and moves into the apartment next door for a few weeks, his presence slowly begins to change her life. Forty-year-old gallery owner Eleonore Eberhard is constantly working, with an upcoming exhibition opening just around the corner, neglecting her husband and son. Mayor Franz Leitner is devoted to his job and has only the well-being of the town and its residents in mind.

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.
