A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Andrea Bordoli has a background in Visual Anthropology (MA, University of Manchester), Visual Arts – Cinema (HEAD – Genève), and Anthropology and Philosophy (BA, Neuchâtel University). His research and practice lies at the intersection between anthropological theory, film and visual art. He is currently based between Switzerland and Québec, and he is pursuing a practice-led PhD in Media Anthropology at the University of Bern as part of the interdisciplinary project "Mediating the Ecological Imperative" (https://ecological-imperative.ch/). Since January 2022 he is a visiting artist-researcher at the anthropology department of McGill University. His works have been presented in academic settings and exhibited in film festivals and art spaces nationally and internationally, such as Visions du Réel Nyon, Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin, European Media Arts Festival Osnabrück, the Society for Visual Anthropology Film and Media Festival, ETHNOFEST Athens and others. In parallel to his personal research he collaborated with various research groups and institutions such as EASA CH, Université de Neuchâtel, Locarno Film Festival and Cinémathèque Suisse.

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.
