Himself
Ester Krumbachová - a costume designer, screenwriter, director; one of the boldest personalities of the Czech New Wave. She worked in theatre, she was a writer and an illustrator. She co-created films such as O slavnosti a hostech (1966), Sedmikrásky (1966), Vsichni dobrí rodáci (1969), Pension pro svobodné pány (1968), Valerie a týden divu (1970), Slamený klobouk (1972) and many others. In the 1960s, she was a 'pivot' of the art scene in Prague, attracting artists who were on the threshold of their career, just setting out to find their own form of self-realization. Those who underwent her tutelage remember her forever. Director Vera Chytilová talks to those who knew Ester Krumbachová, who worked with her, befriended her, loved her. She sets off on a search that is to end by answering the question: Who was Ester?
Original Music Composer
В небольшом доме на окраине Праги соседствуют две семьи. Глава семьи Себеков — высокий военный чин, симпатизирующий коммунистам. Старший же Краус — ветеран чешского сопротивления и настоящий патриот своей страны. И пока взрослые сражаются за свои идеалы, юный Михал Собек, похоже, влюбился в симпатичную Индришку Краус, мысли которой, впрочем, заняты кем-то другим.
Original Music Composer
Poetic movie about 3 generations of women.
'Mnaga - Happyend' is a crazy pseudo-documentary about Mnaga&Zdorp, a real (and much loved) Czech pop-rock group. It depicts their fictitious history of being created artificially, on demand of the musical market.
Himself

Original Music Composer
1959 год. Балтимор. Шестеро закадычных друзей, проводящих дни и ночи напролет в старомодной и дешевой забегаловке небольшого городка, задушевно беседуют о «своем». Женщины, азартные игры, «соленые» анекдоты — вот далеко не полный перечень тем и откровений молодых людей, переваливших 20-летний рубеж, которым предстоит научиться справляться с проблемами взрослой жизни и попрощаться с юношеской беззаботностью.

Original Music Composer
Sketched loosely, the narrative of Poe's first feature is as scrappy and paper-thin as its protagonist Rico, a self-styled loner in New York City circa 1976 who longs to inhabit the "New Wave" scene of mid-60s Paris. In Rico's day-to-day life as an unsuccessful photographer, he wearily searches for authentic connection-- even as he spouts the most inauthentic prose imaginable.
Director
This is Poe and Král's first effort, shot on small-gauge stock, before their more well-known endeavor The Blank Generation (1976) came to be. A "DIY" portrait of the New York music scene, the film is a patchwork of footage of numerous rock acts performing live, at venues like Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall, the dive bars of Greenwich Village and, of course, CBGB.
