Sh_t Happens

Dávid Štumpf, Michaela Mihalyiová | Czech Republic, Slovakia, France | 2019 | 14 min

A string of unexpected, comic and even absurd scenes from the life of a property caretaker in which the main roles are played by his frustrated wife and a depressed deer. The events take such a turn that it is soon clear that the film’s main protagonist cannot expect a happy end. The film has a simple but very original artistic style.

Ramble

Filip Tatýrek | Czech Republic | 2019 | 3 min

Once upon a nighttime, something happened close to a village near Prague. With a specifically naive artistic style, a student of the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague tells the story of three friends who – for economic reasons – decided to walk and – uneconomically – stopped in a pub in Srbsko, a village near Prague.

Noctuelle

Martin Pertlíček | Czech Republic | 2019 | 11 min

Noctuelle takes his job extremely seriously. He is convinced that there is purpose in his craft. He has no doubts that he is on the right side. After all, his magical butterflies bring people good dreams! But apart from good-hearted butterflies, another pair of wings flaps through the silence of the night – wings of a dangerous bat with dark intents.

There Is Something Behind the Sound

Julie Lupačová | Czech Republic | 2019 | 10 min

This experimental film was made by a student of the Academy of Arts, Architecture Design in Prague. According to her own words, the director was inspired by the undiscovered secrets of the universe. To create the visual style of her film, she used computer programmes and collected numerical data that served as a basis for the film’s soundtrack built upon their exact sound representation and conversion.

The protagonist of this film made by a Croatian filmmaker who studied at the Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague is a young woman named Sylvie.
