 You can also use ``not.is.null`` to make an ``or`` filter across multiple resources.

+Here, we use :ref:`empty embeds <empty_embed>` because retrieving their info would be restricted by the filters.
+For example, the ``directors`` embedding would return ``null`` if its ``first_name`` is not John.
+To solve this, you need to add extra embedded resources and use the empty ones for filtering.
