One of the lead characters is Maria, an inn keeper; always a bride but never a wife. She meets the newcomer Pierre, who disturbs the peace of the small village and teaches the locals how to enjoy life. The film is full of fireworks of lovely colours, and a warm feeling. It is like a carousel of humour and human situations that carry us away, from the very first frame to the unexpected ending, making the viewer laugh gaily. Using a mosaic approach to the traditional narrative line, the film director creates a picture of fairly anarchic glee. “Celebration in the Botanical Garden” is a world of fantasy, full of summer fun, good humour and delight. E. Havetta´s debut was inspired by naïve art, French impressionism, and silent slap-stick as well as Western Slovakian folk traditions.

This historical film by Hynek Bočan touches upon the indecisiveness of the Czech nation, ready to bend the backbone in face of foreign rule. Situating the story at the close of the Thirty Year War enabled the depiction of the misery of the people that affects even an impoverished aristocratic milieu. Rudolf Hrušínský appears here in the role of an indecisive knight, persuaded for a long time and in vain to join the anti-Habsburg movement. The story does not only captivate through the depiction of manifold human characters, intrigues and sycophancy, but also through the circumstances ruling over the devastated farmstead, sunk in mud and crudeness. One of the best films with an updating tendency has come into being here, rightly being named along the such greats as Kladivo na čarodějnice (Witches' Hammer).

Kam Cert Nemuze by director Zdenek Podskalsky is a routine farce that slowly builds up steam to some rib-tickling slapstick episodes. (Miroslav Hornicek) is a deluded young man who is convinced he is Faust incarnate. This turn of mind leads to some ludicrous situations, such as when he believes a woman is really a cat. Before he can be rounded up and interned wherever they keep people with this type of a problem, love enters his life and the clouds that obscured his vision begin to dissipate.

야심으로 가득 찬 아티거스는 상상을 초월한 막강한 폭발물을 발명한 천재 발명가 박사와 그의 조수를 그의 섬에 납치하고 그 폭발물의 힘을 빌려 세계를 위협하려 한다. 박사의 조수는 아티거스의 계략을 눈치채고 섬에서 도망치려 하지만 뜻밖의 일들에 휩싸이게 된다. 쥘 베른의 원작 소설을 카렐 제만의 독특한 상상력으로 새롭게 재탄생시킨 작품으로 라이브 액션과 애니메이션으로 조합된 그만의 순수한 스타일이 처음으로 드러난 작품이다. 이런 독특한 스타일은 20세기 초반 프랑스의 영화감독 조르주 멜리어스(Georges Melies)의 무성영화들과 소설가 쥘 베른의 첫 번째 책에 그림을 그려 넣었던 프랑스의 화가들, 리옹(Rion)과 베넷(Bennet) 의 영향을 받았다. 1958 브뤼셀 엑스포-58 장편부분 그랑프리 수상. 1958 프랑스 영화 아카데미 국제 그랑프리 수상.
