Miserable Prague - Islands
This documentary series was created through the initiative of director Štěpán Kačírek who became interested in historian Josef Kroutvor's essays from the magazine Revolver Revue. The documentary shows zones of old-time atmosphere that are gradually disappearing, and city outskirts that may not be Prague's best asset but which make Prague what it is today.
Miserable Prague - The Shards of a Republic
This documentary series was created through the initiative of director Štěpán Kačírek who became interested in historian Josef Kroutvor's essays from the magazine Revolver Revue. The documentary shows zones of old-time atmosphere that are gradually disappearing, and city outskirts that may not be Prague's best asset but which make Prague what it is today. In the twenties, it was decided that a public bid would be announced for this monument. A number of important architects took part in the contest. Then, in 1950 it was decided that the monument would serve as a burial site for prominent representatives of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia and for prominent artists.
Great Bear - Long Live Death
Different perspectives on death.
Up to Silence
A movie about three big spanish celebrations (La Tomatina, San Fermin and drumming in Calanda), conceived as a stylized parable of war, killing and death. It is difficult to determine if it's really a document in the right meaning of the word. There are no juicy comments, catchy introducions or authentic interviews with the people. Only picture and sound. Nothing else.
