Jelena
Countries:
ME | RS
The story of Jelena is set to Serbia's capital Belgrad and it follows the life of an ordinary woman, who's not happy in love. She's married to Ratko and has two children Sasa and Lidija. Inspite of years that went by, Jelena never managed to forget Vuk, a love of her life she has been involved with in her youth. She was separated from Vuk under tragic and mysterious circumstances. After 3 decades in his wish to pursue justice, Vuk returns to his city bringing his daughter Helen with him. His attempt to clarify what happened and to prove the truth is sabotaged by Jelena's husband who keeps failing in business more and more. Even though he loves Jelena, he has a relationship with Sofija, the owner of a modeling agency. Nobody expects that the accidental encounter between Sasa and Helen will become fatal once they decided to start the life together.
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.
