Manipulation with history in historical Otakar Vávra's movies focusing on the trilogy Dny zrady, Sokolovo a Osvobození Prahy
Hodura, Pavel ; Knapík, Jiří (advisor) ; Štoll, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with the manipulation of history in the historical film trilogy Dny zrady, Sokolovo and Osvobození Prahy, directed by Otakar Vávra. This thesis tries to define, on the basis of a comparation of historiographical works of the communist and modern historiography, the amount of historical distortion presented in these films. The normalization regime endeavoured to revise the historical knowledge of the second half of the 60s and to resume the tendencies of the communist regime of the late 40s and 50s and attempted to create a myth of perception of mordern national history, in which the positive influence of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia in the 30s and 40s was emphasized. Moreover, this myth of the perception of history aimed to discredite figures that were unwanted by the regime and to emphasize friendship with the Soviet Union. Films and tv-series were an appropriate tool to form the perception of history among the people.

Optophonetic harmonies
Klímová, Blanka ; Čihák, Martin (advisor) ; Bagdasarov, Georgy (referee)
The basic starting point of the following text lies in the essays written by Czech theorists of 1930s, such as poets, scientists, film critics and avant-garde filmmakers. The text proceeds from the precedence of asynchronity which is the fundamental mean of the film language. It follows the origins of using the sound as the bearer of meaning and it looks for describe it as a meaning-making element of the film transmission. I?m writing about the experiments of visualisation of sounds based on searching the analogy between the visual and the acoustic space of a film opus. I proceeded from the films of O. Fischinger, Whitney brothers, L. Lye, H. Hirshe, F. and S. Themerson and J. Lehovec. For the analysis of relations between geometrical and informel structures depending on the space and the time, I used the films of M. Duchamp, F. Léger, G. Dulac, H. Chomette, R. Steiner, H. Richter, V. Eggeling and W. Ruttmann.
An integral part of this text is the formal analysis of the film Na Pražském hradě (Prague Castle, 1931) by Alexander Hackenschmied. All this only for find the optophonetic harmonies, based on the vibrations of the acoustic and visual waves and their synchronous or asynchronous variations.

Šilarová, Hana ; ŠVECOVÁ, Marta (advisor) ; Tabakov, Diana (referee)
The present thesis explores the industry programme of the Jihlava International Documentary Film Festival, as well as the ways producers benefit from it. This festival has a long-term tradition organizing programmes for film professionals. The individual components of the programme are conceived, respectively, for participants of various professions, for instance festival directors or film directors, with its main section, Emerging Producers, aimed at starting European producers.
The first part of the present work describes the history of Jihlava IDFF and the individual sections of its industry programme, while the second part compares the festival to two other ones of similar size, namely CPH:DOX and Visions du Réel Nyon, whose conceptions differ to a significant extent from Jihlava’s. The last section of the thesis, drawing in part on online questionnaires administered to Emerging Producers participants and to the producers of films competing at the festivals in question between the years 2012 and 2016, examines the contribution industry programmes bring to producers.
