Moodflix was created on top of a movie dataset of 10k movies from The Movie Database. I vectorised the films using Hugging Face's T5 model (https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/t5) using the film's plot synopsis, genres and languages. Then I indexed the vectors using hnswlib (https://github.com/nmslib/hnswlib). LLMs can understand a movie's plot pretty well and distill the similarities between a user's query (mood) to the movie's plot and genres.
I have got feedback from close friends around linking movies to other review sites like IMDB or Rotten Tomatoes, linking movies to sites to stream the movie and adding movie posters. I would also love to hear from the community what things you like, what you want to see and what things you consider can be improved.
