Peter Balko

Criminal thriller about traffickers and smugglers from Ukrainian border. The feature film about the borders and the life on their edge.

A short film about the heroism of ordinary people during the Slovak National Uprising, portrayed by popular Slovak personalities.

The story of the film The Candidate takes place during two months of campaigning before a non-specific presidential election in one specific country. The author of the diary entries has no idea for whom he is recording the eavesdropping and enthusiasm for an interesting job in which he follows a bishop, a crazy owner of an advertising agency and a bland presidential candidate with the eloquent name Peter Potôň and an even sweeter-sounding family history, soon give way to disgust and confusion. His diary becomes a file with transcripts of conversations, information about characters and characters, emails, scraps from psychiatric medical records and pictures, which he scribbles at first out of boredom, later because words and rational explanations are no longer enough. The candidate is a political farce, a sad-funny depiction of what happened, is happening, and could very easily happen in this small country.

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.

A forensic psychologist solves a mysterious case and a marital crisis at the same time. Can he resist the dark forces that tempt him to uncover the secrets of the case, or will he fall victim to them?
