Sir "P" a 90 year old gray parrot, formerly living with Edouard Daladier, the French prime minister responsible for signing the Munich Treaty, comes to Prague to give his "account" of the past events. But can he do it, being just a bird? In a series of weird events sir is kidnapped by a Czech journalist undergoing his midlife crisis. The guy has him publicly say some really controversial statements, causing a diplomatic scandal. At the end of the day it is the French who decide to assassinate their own national hero....And that's only the half of the story.

“The fact that I’m playing myself doesn’t mean that it’s me.” Four old schoolmates, today well-known Czech actors (Pavel Liška, Tomáš Matonoha, Josef Polášek and Marek Daniel), decide to make a movie together. Their ambitious colleague Jan Budař takes up directing duties and financing has arrived from Poland. What started out pleasantly enough, however, soon goes awry. Liška’s pronunciation difficulties, Daniel’s alter ego Havlát, and Matonoha’s financial machinations turn the shoot into a fight for survival. More than just a film about friendship and the absurdity of actors’ lives, director Marek Najbrt gives us a witty meditation on reality and illusion, and a unique take on the reality film genre. One of Pavel Liška’s on-set comments (“I didn’t know if I should act as if I were acting, or act as if I weren’t acting, or just not act at all”) illustrates the provocative nature of Najbrt’s subversive, quasi-documentary game.

A Czech journalist joins a Prague radio station what broadcasts Nazi propaganda in order to protect his Jewish wife. However, as the Nazi rule over Czechoslovakia calls for more and more collaboration, his relationship with his wife spirals downward.

Bear friends Nedvěd and Miška embark on the craziest adventures together in order to fill their perpetually hungry bellies as easily as possible. You will see how these entertaining furry friends met, how they cook and taste truffles together, how they celebrate Christmas in the summer, which they sleep through every winter, and how they reconcile a bear quarrel. They even have a huge feast waiting for them, where bears from all over the world will arrive.

Inseparable bear friends, big Nedvěd and little Miška, return to the big screen in a brand new polar adventure. This time, the furry friends with perpetually hungry bellies decide not to hibernate and, at the invitation of a polar bear, set off for an ice cream festival at the distant pole. Along the way, they meet and help each other with new animal friends from different corners of the world. Will they manage to find the pole and taste the delicious popsicles? After their challenging journey, the sweet-toothed Nedvěd and Miška reminisce about the best moments from the bear series – what it was like when they craved potato pancakes, the first-class deer chef, the unexpected visit from Mojmír the bat, and what happened when they picked all the plums from the animals' orchard. There are also cheerful songs that you won't be able to get out of your head and a recipe for unique homemade ice cream. Nanukům brum!

From the makers of legendary CZECH DREAM, a hilarious documentary about a hoax hypermarket, comes CZECH PEACE, a new playfully explosive flm about the mayor of a small Czech village and his attempts to foil the American plan to build its 762nd military base right on his doorstep. The players in this story are everyone from villagers to George W. Bush, Condoleezza Rice, Barack Obama, peace activists and lobbyists representing American arms manufacturers. Can the Mayor of Trokavec (population 80) take the US on? CZECH PEACE shows the workings of geopolitics and the way they affect the little people. The personal clashes with the impersonal, the specifc with the universal, and an individual with the so-called great history.

Young married couple Radek and Johana are considering adoption. In order to weigh up the possible risks, they gatecrash a meeting of their contemporaries who grew up in adoptive families and contacted each other via internet chat rooms. A group of thirty-somethings get together at a campsite for a few days in order to set up an association in support of adoption. Despite their shared fate and "noble” intentions, the members of this small community don’t hit it off. Where does pretentious tolerance end and buck-passing indifference begin? And what has decent morality got in common with xenophobia? As an ironic reflection that questions how prepared we should be to help each other out, the film offers a sophisticated and poetic take on the grimly authentic style of the Dogme 95 Manifesto. This satirical comedy was the result of collaboration with the LÁHOR/Soundsystem theatre group, which focuses on realistic collective stage improvisation within the structure of a predetermined story.

A tale of Prokop and Magdalena's journey to see a solar eclipse. Along the way, they experience unexpected adventures, ponder life, and, thanks to their confused nature, find themselves in danger. At the same time, it is a poetic reflection on transportation between places and communication between people. Above all, however, it is a portrait of two real people and the world around them in an unexpected situation—a feature film!
