No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

I am accessing the discover and search api from tmdb python library. I was able to access it successfully yesterday. But today, if I run it, I am getting the error "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it".
I am not running a memory intensive operation. But just retrieving only one movie.
CONFIG_PATTERN = 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key={key}' url = CONFIG_PATTERN.format(key=tmdb.API_KEY) r = requests.get(url) config = r.json()
Can you please unblock me?

We don't block anyone outside of our standard rate limiting policies.
That error doesn't mean anything to me specifically, are you getting an actual error from us?
