Goat story - The Old Prague Legends

2008

The cheerful story tells about Kuba and his constantly chattering Goat, who bring eggs to the construction of the Charles Bridge. Love for the city girl Máca leads Kuba to work at the legendary Old Town Astronomical Clock. The whole story is interwoven with the mysterious fate of the poor student Matěj from Faust's house and other rumors and ghosts of medieval Prague. In addition to the great acting performances of Jiří Lábus and Matěj Hádek, "The Goat Story" - the first Czech 3D animated film - gained a reputation as a film with a special and distinctive visual concept, which won the favor of foreign viewers as well. 

Goat story with cheese

2012

The story of the goat with cheese loosely follows on from the previous part. The plot of the film has been transferred from medieval Prague to the fairy-tale cheese kingdom, and in addition to the old familiar characters, the audience can look forward to a number of fairy-tale creatures and new protagonists - the children of Kuba and Máci - Honzík and Zuzanka, who go through the entire story together with the Goat. The overall tuning of the film is more family and fairy tale than in the previous part.
