Fispan's Apple
The fairy tale tells the story of a royal couple who cannot have children. With the help of a magical prop, they finally succeed, but in double measure. They give birth to twins. Which prop is responsible for this? Well, take a guess, or better yet, take another look at the title of the fairy tale. When the boys grow up and one of them is supposed to take over the joys and responsibilities of ruling, an unsolvable problem arises: should it be Vojta or František? We won't reveal the plot with all its twists and turns, but one thing is certain: the boys set out into the world with the understanding that the one who can perform the greater heroic deed will become king. The princes, even though they are not exactly cut out for it, take on the task with all their vigor and responsibility.

Zlatohláska
A TV parody with songs based on well-known fairytale motifs tells the story of Decibella, the daughter of the black priest Ramus, who has only one desire: to perform with her band Pazvuka at the royal castle, to charm Prince Cinderella, whose passion is songwriting, with her music and to become his wife, the future queen. She has no idea that the prince has already been charmed by the song of the poor Goldilocks and takes great offence when the prince banishes her from the palace with her cacophonous music. Out of revenge, she begs her father to curse the whole country out of singing and music. Goldilocks, with the help of the fairy Echoes, finds the enchanted tones and helps Prince Cinderella to get the music back from the Black Prince for the people.
