SPARQL Regex does not show what is supposed to show

I am trying to run this query on http://www.linkedmdb.org/snorql and on Jena (java) in order to get all datasets with the title "NVA" for example.

select ?f where {

            ?f dc:title  ?s.
            FILTER(REGEX(?s, "NVA", "i")).

 }

However, it shows only this result http://data.linkedmdb.org/page/film/2532 and not http://data.linkedmdb.org/page/film/4958 (the one I should get).

But by running this query, I get only the second dataset (4958) and not first

select ?f where {

            ?f dc:title  "NVA"

 }

I was wondering why my filter is not working correctly ? and what should I add to get the datasets with the exact title of my keyword in my regex?

Thanks.

FILTER(REGEX(?s, "NVA", "i")).

The "i" means case insensitive matching. The "NVA" matches any part for the string.

?f dc:title "NVA"

is more like:

?f dc:title  ?s.
FILTER REGEX(?s, "^NVA$")
