Story about a group of eccentric Dadaist artists in a small Serbian town in the 1920s.

Comedy about a group of musicians who are sent to play to villagers and workers to raise morale during a 5 year plan. The trouble is they prefer to play jazz and boogie music to the traditional folk songs, and each time they try their jazz they are reprimanded by the local party secretary.

A sentimental, delightful journey along the former railway route “Porečanka” that connected Trieste and Poreč from 1902 until 1935. Then it was dismantled and the tracks to be used in Mussolini’s war in Abyssinia but they sank in the Mediterranean – an ironic turn of history, an ideal subject for Karpo Godina, the master of tender wit.

Godina drove to the north of Serbia, Yugoslavia's Vojvodina province, and shot several folk singers and their families, introducing a wealth of Yugoslav folk music.

Experimental 8mm film by Karpo Godina.

Documentary focusing on the making of "I Miss Sonia Henie"

The mysterious, charming Mr. P. F., the protagonist of this full-length documentary film, is a sportsman, inventor, owner of more than 400 patents and a cosmopolitan who knew life in Europe's most glamorous cities. His inquisitiveness and the spirit of cosmopolitanism lured him to Switzerland, where he only just started living. Very quickly he ended up among the European rich elite and they accepted him as one of them. He was a millionaire who was thought to be a billionaire and who also lived like a billionaire.

TV film about the legendary Ljubljana bar Šumi.

Karpo Acimovic-Godina's short documentary that follows the production of single room omnibus film I Miss Sonia Henie. Features footage of Godina, Dušan Makavejev, Tinto Brass, Bogdan Tirnanić, Mladomir “Puriša” Ðorđević, Paul Morrissey, and Frederick Wiseman.

One camera in one setting, one attic and eight young directors – the result is a unique Dadaistic collage of seven short sketches. The original task for each filmmaker was to keep each short under three minutes, to set it in one hotel room, and to include the sentence “I miss Sonja Henie." This experimental film was shot over a single night at the international film festival FEST in Beograd in 1971.

A film about short-lived Slovenian war of independence.

The story is told through different points of view. A woman loves everything green, her husband loves his car, a magician knows the secrets of the stars, a professor knows everything about sound and a cyclist solves a difficult problem. A surreal travel through time and space.

Val Sebald is an author who comes to the Island to retreat from life and land. There he lives among the islanders and his favorite women, the heroines of various maritime novels. His relations with actual women from his past are reduced to messages in bottles that he ceremonially throws into the water. Val brings the real and imaginary people together into a place he is comfortable with, while his real life also becomes more and more one with the sea and the underwater world.

The wish to unglue himself from the ground, to rise above it with only the strength oh his muscles, has been one of man’s oldest yearnings yet to come true. The story of the film is a result of the Mayor’s wish to have his Island enter aviation history, and the impotence of the chosen “flyer”, who in his blind passion for flying doesn’t even notice his wife’s affair with the mailman or the conspiracy of the village big shots, who are ready to sacrifice their neighbour for the dubious distinction of being written of as the first self powered aviator. The church bell, the stake for a successful flight, ends up on the “flyers” yard since the pilot has kept his word :”I will fly. I will rise, glide through the air, or I’ll never walk the ground again.”

A Slovenian children's show.

A thief commits daring robberies (a la Raffles) in Slovenia during the 1920s. While he romances the ladies a persistent detective tries to hunt him down and bring him to justice.
