- What do folklore, black metal and zombies have in common? Ivana Slabáková, the 1st lady of Moravian folklore music, announces a historical discovery - The Script of Mikulcice, an ancient document revealing the importance of Great Moravia, the once mighty kingdom and early adopter of Christianity in Central Europe. Slabáková puts together Moravian patriots, a troupe of pensioned theatre amateurs and the regional head of Satanist Church, to perform a splashy musical performance based on the finding. However, the climax of the show reanimates the dead from ancient Pagan burial grounds and zombie apocalypse ensues. During an epic clash of cultures, Moravia's Christian invaders are wiped out. After that, life goes back to normal - folklore music plays again, zombies work the vineyard and hope for even better harvest ever after. Make Moravia Great Again.
- Outliving Dracula explores the radical influence of the classic (and first) lesbian vampire story, JS Le Fanu's Carmilla, on generations of filmmakers - from Carl Dreyer's extraordinary Vampyr to Roger Vadim's Blood and Roses, from the Gothic kitsch of Hammer through to films produced for an art gallery context. Featuring interviews with leading film scholars and visual artists influenced by Le Fanu, Outliving Dracula seeks to redefine Le Fanu's critical importance as an Irish writer whose ghostly traces remain profound and enigmatic. This documentary suggests that Carmilla may perhaps be more radical and transgressive today as a creative wellspring than its successor Dracula.
