Every year, in the middle of the Brazilian holiday season, CAOSS is held, a surfing championship that attracts thousands of tourists and hundreds of young people in search of the same dream: to become professional surfers. The event is very important because the team that wins the tournament has the passport secured to continue competing professionally on the official circuits. At the beginning of the series Rafa (André Lamoglia) escapes from the summer course imposed by his father, a great businessman, to pursue his dream of being a professional surfer and win the CAOSS tournament. Thus he manages to form his team made up of Billy (Bruno Astuti) and Jojo (Marino Cangucu) and which will eventually be called Juacas. The Red Sharks team will be the main rival in this championship.
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.
