In Kamenákov, the arrival of a Romany family becomes a problem for police chief Pepa and ignites an intense soccer rivalry.

Shark in the Head unfolds into a stunning cinematic powerhouse that combines comedy and drama for a touching story about how we influence the people we meet while being profoundly affected ourselves by the colors they bring to our own lives.

Kameňák 2, inspired again by well-known and less well-known stone jokes (director Zdeněk Tročko received an incredible sixty thousand of them from the audience!) directly follows the first part, which ends with the gushing of a blue erectile spring from the rock at the Kameňákov castle. The miraculous effect of the blue spring on potency causes an unprecedented uproar in the town, and even old Kropáčková experiences its beneficial power. However, as suddenly as the spring appeared, it also disappeared. But did it really disappear? And where? The insidious granny Kropáčková knows this best, who in the second part becomes a terror to the young men in the town. The disappearance of the blue spring of a lucrative business has not let even the local mafia sleep. All traces lead unmistakably to the Kropáčková house in the manor house...

The story of Zdeněk Troška's new comedy, which was inspired by countless stone jokes, takes us to a peaceful South Bohemian town. A whole range of typically Czech characters and prototype families live here with their unchanging rhythm. For example, the Nováks. Pepa's father is a captain of the city police, his wife Vilma is a teacher, his daughter Julia is studying health, and nine-year-old Pepíček comments in an unspeakable way on everything that is happening around. The boy literally starts to have eyes on top of his head when a noble couple arrives in Kameňákov from England, to whom the local castle was returned as part of the restitution. Nothing is hidden in a small town, and soon everyone knows that the lord has come here to look for his father's treasure. Such news will bring the whole of Kameňákov to its feet and literally keep three local mafia members, the rich Kohn, the handsome chief of police and the experienced criminal, awake. And then things start to happen...

The life story of Blessed Zdislava of Lemberk, about whom legends rather than sparse historical references tell us that she was a deeply religious woman with healing powers who devoted herself entirely to the humble service of her sick and suffering neighbors.

Just in time, Róza Riedlová returns from the grave to beneficially intervene in the life of timid Jana, who is full of doubts about everything and especially about herself. If Róza, that charming older lady, is a ghost at all, then she is definitely one of the kindest ones in our world. Otherwise, she would not be able to bring such wonderful order to human relationships, not only in Jana's family and at school, but everywhere she appears. An appealing comedy story that has won awards both at home and abroad. In 1995, a jury in Montevideo named it the best film for children, and in 1994, it won first prize in the children's film category at the Ota Hofman Festival in Ostrov, with Iva Janžurová winning the award for most likable adult actor for her role as Róza.
