Janez Burger's FAMácké exercise is exceptional in that it is the only comedic or actually parodic work he has ever made. The screenwriter of this title, Jan Lipšanský, is said to have contributed to this by "reworking" the original material. Thus, instead of a dramatic probe into the inner workings of a disgraced filmmaker whose works are constantly rejected by those who are not even interested in originality, a parody was created.
