A story about the longest armed resistance against communist rule in the Eastern bloc - that in Bulgaria, and about the fate of the participants in it - the Goryans. The author has collected invaluable stories of surviving participants in the Goryan movement in the most active regions of the country - Kyustendil, Pirin region, Srednogorie, Ruse and Sliven. Their authentic account of the events of more than 60 years ago is complemented by relatives of the dead Goryans. The film also includes important documentary evidence of the large-scale operations undertaken by the Bulgarian Communist Party against the Goryans through the Committee for State Security and the militia in order to break their resistance.

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
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.
