Tales from the Mag­ic Garden

Tom (4 years old), Suzanne (8) and Derek (10) spend the weekend with their grandparents. But nothing is as usual: Grandpa seems to be elsewhere; Tom wonders where Grandma has gone, she who always tells him incredible stories; Derek is hard at work renovating the old apple tree hut. So following in the footsteps of her ancestor, Suzanne improvises herself as a storyteller to illuminate the house with imaginary and wonderful stories and try to fill the absence of Grandmother. The movie is an adaptation of three tales written by Arnost Goldflam.

Gregor Mendel and the Secret of Peas

The story of Johann Gregor Mendel briefly and entertainingly encompasses his entire life from childhood to the autumn of life: all the pitfalls and peripeties fate has prepared for him, his father's death, monastic service, and above all the basic discovery of the laws of heredity he made while crossing pea lines. When his contribution was misunderstood by his contemporaries, Mendel turned to a number of other natural sciences.
