It tells the story of Ferdi and Cemile's impossible love. Ferdi's father takes the blame for Zeki Ağa's crime and is executed. Zeki Ağa raises Ferdi alongside his own children. Years later, Ferdi returns home as a highly educated agricultural engineer. Zeki Ağa loves Ferdi dearly and wants him to marry Cemile. Davut, who is jealous of Ferdi, rubs the kindness shown to him in his face. Ferdi, who wants to repay the kindness shown to him, takes the blame for Davut's murder and goes to prison. Years later, when he is released from prison and reunited with Cemile, Davut's anger has not subsided.
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.
