Three years after the fall of the Berlin Wall; six months before the split of Czechoslovakia. Despite all warnings, a young homicide detective sets on investigating a convoluted case that involves Catholic clerical elite and high-ranked agents of the former secret service.

A hapless Prague actor is drafted at the last minute to stand in for the star of Boskovice’s Wild West Show, just to discover that throwing tomahawks at full gallop, surviving saloon can-can dancers, and keeping up with town “cowboys” is far more perilous than it looks on TV. As he stumbles through shoot-outs and broken bones (both of his, no less), he finds himself equally disarmed by the town’s fierce Western spirit, and by the smile of its most captivating beauty.

Two pretty girls work at the Koloděj inn – the greedy Líza and the deceitful Berta. Berta has a boyfriend, the mushroom-loving Václav, who can't take his eyes off her. But that's not enough for the spiteful girl, who envies even the crumbs on Líza's plate. What happens when the handsome Mr. Jindřich, the innkeeper's son, falls in love with Líza? The original fairy tale by screenwriter Helena Sýkorová tells us with unique humor.

A loose continuation of the cases of our murder squad in the films Škodná and Hrobník. The new film not only deals with the murder of a psychologist, reminiscent in some respects of a deviant crime with bizarre ritual elements. We also follow the fate of Drobný, a recently released prisoner who is convinced that he has a profound reason to hate the psychologist and take revenge on her. Gradually, he finds himself in the position of a cornered animal, which only intensifies his desire for harsh retribution. The first storyline of the film is purely detective-like, while Drobný's story is more in the style of a gritty crime thriller.

The devil and the water sprite, typical Czech characters, play the leading roles in today's fairy tale. They were invited to the castle by Lord Nesvít himself to help him win the hand of Lady Luzmila from the Cloud Kingdom. However, Nesvít is not so much interested in her as in her gold. But Luzmila is cut from the same cloth. And so the devil and the water sprite are there to find out who has a black soul and who needs help. But in the process, their magic causes a lot of confusion...

Young Mordechai Mayzl has long been in love with Sarah, the daughter of the Prague chief rabbi of the Jewish community. But Mordechai is very poor, so he can only dream of marrying the girl he loves. Or rely on a miracle. Fortunately, in the Rudolfine era in which our heroes lived, magic and miracles abounded. And so it happened that the miserly primate, on one of his returns from a business trip, stumbled upon the coveted golden treasure in the forest. What the primate's greed causes and the intricate paths the treasure takes to reach its rightful owner are told in this fairy tale, which was filmed based on a story by E. Petiška.
