Adventures of the boys of a pioneer camp during a summer camping trip. A new leader, Artem, a geophysics student and hiker, came to the pioneer group. He led the pioneers on a hike, which they had been doing for three summers in a row, in places they had long known and explored. And then the four friends, Gena, Dima, Pasha and Oleg, decided to escape from the group and go hiking on their own, but not just for fun, but for the sake of a great discovery. They dreamed of discovering "state-important ore," which, according to Dima, must be somewhere in the vicinity of Sinoe Lake. Far away from Sinoe Lake, the paths of the squad and the four friends converged. The boys didn't find the ore, though - Dima made it all up - but they did find a legendary tank whose trail was lost during the German-Soviet war. The boys decided to search for the unknown heroes and find out their names. The hike continued.

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.
