// the problem
RetfenyMozi is a small single-screen local cinema that needed a real booking system, not just a listings page — showtimes, seat selection, and payment, backed by infrastructure that could actually run in production without babysitting.
// the approach
A one-screen cinema can't afford downtime or a fragile checkout on a Friday night, so the build prioritized a content layer the cinema can update itself and a payment path that's genuinely production-grade from day one, not bolted on later.
// the solution
A Postgres-backed content layer for movies and showtimes, Stripe for checkout, and Resend for confirmation emails. The listings and showtimes are live now; seat selection and payment are the current build focus.
// the system
Next.js on Vercel, PostgreSQL for movies/showtimes/bookings, Stripe for payment, Resend for transactional email, and a full CI/CD pipeline so changes ship safely without manual deploys.
// technology
// outcome
The site is live with real, current listings, and the booking and payment flow is the current focus — this project doubles as a demonstration of production-grade infrastructure, not just a front end.
