Ema & Death’s-Head deals with the precarious border between humanism and the protection of one’s own life in situations when one excludes the other. Marika Sándorfi is hiding a Jewish boy during the dramatic era of the First Slovak State on the Slovak-Hungarian border. Šimon Holan, the boy in hiding, has a special ability to survive thanks to dreaming and a child’s fantasy.

New husband Adam reluctantly takes a job with state security in a totalitarian country, thus becoming a secret police agent. This "contract with the devil" helps secure a flat for the happy couple, as well as a prosperous future. However, he soon finds out that he too is under surveillance.

Dark satire about bare-knuckled capitalism in the immediate post-Cold War era. Set just as the Communist government is collapsing, the film focuses on the brutish Racz, the handyman in a Bratislava hotel. Knowing that his job is insured for life, Racz turns off the building's heat and demands food, money, and sex to have it restored. The film is narrated by a pimp named Urban who explains that people in the former Czechoslovakia were so used to being abused that they simply put up with Racz's corruption. By the end of the film, Racz's fortunes have changed considerably. Instead of being a lowly worker, he is now a ruthless and wealthy businessman, unafraid to kill or kidnap those who get in his way.

A philosophical fairy tale based on the themes of Pavel Dobšinský about faith in man, the good in him, which only love can help to win. Princess Jasna also had such faith in goodness and love, which is why she endured with great difficulty the choice of her father - the king who, after the death of the queen, decided to marry Morana, whose only goal was to destroy all good among people, to elevate selfishness over love, avarice over compassion - and slowly succeeded in doing so in the land of Jasna's father. And because Jasienka refuses to live with Morana and behave according to her, Morana bewitches her until there is a groom who can express his love for her without words, guess her name and give her a gift like no other. For a long time there is no one who can do it, until a young man appears in the royal city, whom the brothers mockingly nickname Janko - the key-holder - only because he preferred a simple key from his father as a gift to the golden cluster...
