In 2022, young speed skater Yan Yang is about to compete in the World Youth Championship for the Chinese team. When he picked up the pair of red skates worn by his father Yan Zhenhua, he couldn't help but think of the indissoluble bond between the three generations of the Yan family and ice and snow sports... 1980, In his childhood, Yan Zhenhua practiced skating under the enlightenment of his father Yan Yiguo, and met Li Binghe, a girl from Harbin, and became a figure skating partner. In the cruel competitive road and the changes of the times, Yan Zhenhua and Li Binghe supported each other, but eventually drifted away. As Yan Zhenhua's son Yan Yang grows up day by day, the story of Yan's family and ice and snow sports has opened a new chapter. In 2019, despite his father's objection, Yan Yang was selected for the short track speed skating youth training camp, but he became the sparring partner of female player Jin Ying due to his poor strength.
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.
