In Nöchling, things tick a little differently. Gossip flourishes here – and when the two village policemen aren't smoking pot, they roar through the countryside in their three-wheeled "Polizia" car (sic!). But dark clouds are gathering over the idyll: The "Ostamt" (Eastern Office), which has long since lost its "P" (signature), is threatened with closure. The two postal workers give in to their booze and get into an argument with the local butcher's son-in-law. The next day, the man has disappeared – and the policemen, who have apparently watched too many "CSI" episodes, begin their momentous, but nonetheless flawed, investigation. Yes, and there's even something resembling a love story.

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.
