In the 1990s, due to an enormous amount of independent bands in activity, the great public present at the shows, and of course, in its geography, in the city of Santos earned the nickname “California Brazilian ”. Approved by one, recovered by others, the fact is that the nickname captured and the importance of the local scene in this history and undeniable. In a decade, an island - yes, Santos is on an island - exported names like Garage Fuzz, Safari Hamburguers, White Frogs and much, much more. And it matters in real time as the main trends of American hardcore and punk, reaching the point of such styles playing the city's young music in the mid-1990s, all of this coupled with a lot of surfing and skateboarding, of course. This doc deals only with this period and phenomenon, showing Brazil as stories and peculiarities of the local scene under the vision and direction of directors Rodiney Assunção and Wladimyr Cruz (“Woodstock - More than a store”, “A new wave of ").

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.
