O Mikešovi
A paraphrase of the classic fairy tale The Gingerbread House, created in 1983 based on one of Josef Lada's Naughty Fairy Tales. And because it is an "inside out" fairy tale, it is not the children who get lost in the forest, but the magical gingerbread man and woman. They see the cottage from a tree, and when they start feeding on the shingles, they fall into a goat pen. To escape their captivity, the cottage is miraculously transformed into a gingerbread house. But mom and dad soon start eating too much gingerbread.
Perníkový dědek
This film portrait of the artist Josef Lada was made for the purpose of popularising the works of the contemporary artist, whose creative body of work suited ideological objectives. This biopic is conceived for the most part as a commentary on a series of drawings and paintings. Nonetheless, it also captures the artist while he is at work and in contact with family and friends.
