In the series, surgeons Alex (Antonio Petrin) and Jairo (Antonio Saboia), along with endocrinologist Cleo (Gabriela Carneiro da Cunha), are partners in the high-end aesthetic clinic Uberwald. Alex, older and grumpy, tends to be straightforward and even refuses some procedures in the name of ethics. On the other hand, Jairo is more ambitious and sees clients as a good opportunity to make money by boosting their self-esteem. Finally, Cleo helps patients understand the secrets of the human body and good nutrition. The cast also includes names like Isabella Masor, Cecília Homem de Mello, Claudia Alencar, Fafá Rennó, among others. Throughout the episodes, the series also features special appearances.

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.
