Kaiti, an employee at a small hair salon, and Irini, the owner of a lingerie store, have been friends since childhood and decide to leave Didymoteicho for a trip to Mykonos. The clever and energetic Kaiti convinces the oppressed Irini to take this trip, which they have been dreaming of for years. Irini pretends she has a lingerie exhibition in Athens, and the trip to Mykonos begins. In Kaiti's old car, they set off for Rafina, where the ferry awaits to take them to Mykonos. For both women, it is the first time they will leave their small world. Through comical and dramatic situations, their journey will bring them face to face with danger, fear, but also the joy of life. Hidden secrets, dreams, and fears will come to light along the way, and this journey will change their lives forever. In the end, they arrive at the port, where the ferry is waiting to take them to the island they have been dreaming of. But for them, the real journey has already begun...

The Search Form


About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
