In 2001, during the great Argentine crisis, when the desperate and depressed population imagined that the country, like Atlantis, was going to disappear under the waters, two young people from Saladillo did not stop making video films using the inhabitants of Saladillo as interpreters. the pampa city. The films, written, filmed and finished in a very short time, are broadcast on local television, breaking audience records. The film follows the activity of the tenacious and enthusiastic Fabio Junco and Julio Midú and their relationship with the neighbors who, in addition to being actors, provide them with all the facilities so that they can make their films. It is the beginning of what will later be known as “cinema with neighbors”, who consider this involvement as a kind of therapy and escape from a particularly adverse daily life.
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.
