A playwright is led into the world of her own story when one of her fictional characters seeks her help in a kidnapping incident.
A supporting character in her own life, Sabrina Stone dreams of being a respected playwright and theatrical star; someone confident and beloved, someone like Elodie, the main character of her fictional play. When she gets the chance to perform her piece for a large audience, she cracks under the intense personal and artistic pressure, humiliating herself and her peers. As issues in her own life begin to reflect those of her story, Sabrina is visited by Elodie herself, who transports her into the surreal world of her own writing. Romance, kidnapping, murder, and a mystical object that grants one's greatest desire are all in play when fiction becomes a reality. Sabrina must navigate the dark and moody landscape she created, save her characters from the problems she gave them, and come to terms with the person she wants to be.

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.
