Lírios Selvagens
Director of Photography
A segunda e, infelizmente, a última longa-metragem feita por um talento único entre cineastas eslovacos, Elo Havetta, é uma das imagens mais originais da cinematografia eslovaca. O filme foi concebido como uma paráfrase da prosa de Vincent Šikula, os episódios trágicos de que o guionista Lubor Dohnal e Havetta compuseram numa história dramática. As personagens principais são veteranos da Primeira Guerra Mundial que voltam para casa. E enquanto eles sentem a necessidade de encontrar uma casa e se acalmar, eles também são impulsionados por uma paixão pela vida livre de um vagabundo.

Celebração no Jardim Botânico
Director of Photography
Um dos personagens principais é Maria, uma estalajadeira; sempre uma noiva, mas nunca uma esposa. Ela encontra o recém-chegado Pierre, que perturba a paz da pequena aldeia e ensina os moradores a aproveitar a vida. O filme está cheio de fogos de artifício de cores bonitas, e uma sensação agradável. É como um carrossel de humor e situações humanas que nos levam para longe, desde o primeiro fotograma ao final inesperado, fazendo com que o espectador ria alegremente. Usando uma abordagem de mosaico para a linha narrativa tradicional, o cineasta cria uma imagem de alegria bastante anárquica. "Celebração no Jardim Botânico" é um mundo de fantasia, cheio de diversão de verão, bom humor e deleite. A estreia de E. Havetta foi inspirada por arte ingénua, impressionismo francês, e silencioso burlesco, bem como as tradições folclóricas eslovacas ocidentais.
