A suspicious man named Yoshioka, who claims to be a friend of Takashi's late father, offers a car as payment for two university students acting in a private adult video. The two friends Takashi and Shogo desperately want a car to make their campus life more meaningful, so they reluctantly agree to appear in a gay adult video together. They somehow manage to get through the humiliating filming and get the promised car. Takashi thinks he'll never do it again, but at that moment something he doesn't realize is beginning to sprout inside him. The next day, Takashi is called by Yoshioka to visit his office. Yoshioka's sponsor, a man who calls himself Hayami, appears before Takashi. Hayami asks Takashi to appear in another gay adult video, and if he refuses, he will copy Yoshioka's tape and distribute it everywhere. Takashi succumbs to the blackmail threats, but during the filming of the video, Shogo looks for him.

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.
