Banger
Come and see the havoc wreaked by one summertime storm, one municipal ordinance, a set of golf clubs, rock and roll and one really pissed of daughter! You may have a laugh or two and, as long as you have a stomach for that kind of thing, you even might end up dancing.

Klasseforstanderen
Den nye læreren Maria Drazdechova kommer for å ta over en barneskoleklasse. Læreren viser stor interesse for barna i begynnelsen, der hun ber barna presentere seg med navn, og fortelle så detaljert som mulig om hva deres foreldre jobber med. Det viser seg snart at hun vil utnytte informasjonen hun får til å manipulere både foreldre og barn til egen vinning. Og folk drives inn i nettet av systematisk maktmisbruk inntil noen foreldre ser hva som er i ferd med å skje, med ubehagelige konsekvenser.

Pupendo
A bittersweet comedy set just prior to 1984, during the era of 'practical socialism'. For political reasons, Bedrich Mára (Bolek Polívka) has had to give up teaching at Prague's Academy of Art. He is not allowed to exhibit and has been pushed to the sidelines of interest and lucrative commissions. He and his ceramicist wife (Eva Holubová) and two sons live in a small apartment on the outskirts of Prague. Míla Brecka (Jaroslav Dusek), the school principal, and his family stand in stark contrast to the Máras. Comrade Míla and his ambitious wife (Vilma Cibulková), Bedrich's fellow student from the Academy, have gone with the socialist flow for years. They find justification for their behavior in the usual words: 'Someones got to swim along with them to make things better; someones got to make that sacrifice!'

Cosy Dens
A family retro-comedy for all ages set at the end of the sixties about everyday family fun and hardship, about the drama inherent in relationships and differing opinions, about sorrow—but also finally, about the awakening of first love. This is a gently poetic and humorous story of the fate of aging parents, maturing teens and younger children. The actual plot of the film takes place in villa, in which two families, the Šebeks and Krauses, live side by side. Mr. Šebek, a simple-minded, good-natured officer by profession is a supporter of the ruling political regime. In contrast, Mr. Kraus, a former resistance fighter with bitter war experiences is his staunch adversary. In the end, each member of both families must live out his own story in his own “cozy den“ untill the Soviet invasion of August 1968 violently disturbs their world.
