Empties
Czech literature teacher Josef Tkaloun, who is past retirement age, realises one day that he no longer understands his pupils, and so he quits… dramatically. What he does not predict is that in doing this he will lose his sense of place in society.
Jogo Sem Gandula
A not very good little digital still camera, our little neighbours and a football. Home movie.
Víkend za milión
A remote cottage becomes the scene of a thrilling drama: two criminals who have robbed a car transporting payroll money break into the weekend home. They capture the residents and hold them hostage to protect themselves from the encroaching police siege. However, director Dušan Trančík is more interested in portraying social ills, especially ruthlessness and petty bourgeoisie, than in telling a thrilling crime story involving a double murder.
Dear John
While Sergeant John Tyree is home on two weeks leave from Germany, he meets Savannah after he dives into the ocean to retrieve Savannah's purse that had fallen off a pier. John eventually falls in love with Savannah, who promises to write to him until he returns from overseas.
