A Hero's Dream tells the story of Tevfik and his friends, who decide to rob a bank in order to cover the medical expenses of a young child. Kerem's father, Sami, loses his life while trying to save the children during a fire that breaks out in the neighborhood. Several years after this tragic event, the news that Sami's son Kerem has leukemia shocks the neighborhood. The neighborhood takes action to raise the money needed for Kerem's recovery. However, when sufficient funds cannot be raised, Tevfik and his friends resort to robbing a bank. The young men begin planning the robbery and start surveilling the bank. When Tevfik and his friends see the bank manager, Kudret, put the vault key in his pocket, they embark on a challenging endeavor.
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.
