Slovakia is a hockey nation. The land of Stanley Cup winners and world champions. However, the stellar generation is over and there are no successors. The home World Cup 2019 brought new hope. The matches of the Slovak national team were given to Košice for the first time, and for the East it was a unique chance to ignite passion in the new generation of fans. The film maps four months before the start of the championships in the lives of two people. World champion from 2002 Ladislav Nagy, who has pursued a career because of the World Cup and wants to say goodbye to it at home in Košice. And Jonáš Pahuli, a beginning hockey player, for whom the championship is a unique chance to see big hockey live and, thanks to that, to kick their own career.

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.
