Twenty-year-old Lera Meshcherikova has a difficult relationship with her mother. Father, grandmother and aunt Olga love Lera, but because of their indecision and lack of will, the girl has to defend her choice on her own. Tatiana cannot accept that her daughter is marrying a guy from a poor family, Denis, and in her heart tells Lera that she is the adopted daughter of the Meshcherikovs. Lera goes to live with Denis, and gradually her life gets better.: she puts up with her father, who gets Denis a job, the guy happily accepts the news that he will soon have a child, and Tatiana has to come to terms with her daughter's marriage. But Leroux is gnawing at the thought that she must find her own mother — only then will she be able to sort herself out. If the girl had known that she would have to pay very dearly for this...

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.
