Právo na minulosť (1989)
Character: N/A
In the late 1980s, several films were made that wanted to come to terms with the crimes of Stalinism, but they did so with a very alibi - they basically communicate that it is enough to remove the erroneous deviation of the communist regime for this social system to become fully humane again. This also applies to the immediate post-war fates of former front-line fighters - one fought in the Soviet Red Army, another in the English Air Force, another was a soldier in the Slovak Army. The difficult character check will only be completed by the 20th Congress of Soviet Communists, which condemned recent blunders. The film was made based on a proposal by former Foreign Minister Bohuslav Chňoupek.

DOGG (2017)
Character: N/A
The film DOGG presents four radical author short stories that will get under your skin. Four directors, four screenwriters and four cameramen created a bizarre illusion of tension and diverse anxiety in separate stories. The short story DUET confronts you with the current threat of growing terrorism and our fear of the unknown. In the second short OPUS DEI, we find ourselves in a horror story, in an old abandoned house that hides a dark secret from the 2nd World War. The third and most controversial short story GRASSVATER forces you to look away from the screen – you are looking at scenes from eastern Slovakia, which are presented very expressively, without embellishments in all their ugliness. There are drugs, mafia, intrigue and a panopticon of characters. The last, visually refined, short story GAME raises the question of where the boundaries of television entertainment end and how far we are willing to go.
