Bible scholar Bachmann is murdered in front of his daughter Johanna. Together with his assistant Simon, a French religious scholar, the young policewoman sets out to find her father's murderer. In the process, they stumble upon the trail of the mysterious Bible code, which is said to be able to prophesy the future of mankind. Pursued by the powerful Cardinal Rhades, Johanna and Simon become involved in a murder plot against the Pope in the Vatican. But not only his life is in danger - the existence of mankind is at stake. In order to prevent the cardinal's plans, it becomes all the more urgent to actually find the key to the Bible code. In a monastery, they discover the last important clue that leads them to the Israeli desert. There, a merciless race ensues for one of the last great secrets of Christianity...
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.
