Os Mártires do Amor
Esta balada em três partes, que muitas vezes usa a música para substituir o diálogo, continua a ser a forma de realização mais perfeita da visão de Nemec de um mundo de filmes independentes da realidade. Montando uma defesa de indivíduos tímidos, inibidos, desajeitadas, e mal sucedidas, os três protagonistas são uma antítese completa dos heróis industriosos de estética socialista. Os Mártires do Amor consolidou a reputação de Nemec como o tipo desenfreado não-conformista do estabelecimento Comunista considerado o mais perigoso para a sua ideologia.
