Kabaret Potem - 15 sztuk

A program written for an experiment. Sikor wanted to try playing with the situation, rather than with jokes, as he had done until then. Potemów was known for its short sketches full of jokes, but in order to develop, it is sometimes necessary to try something different. This is how one of the band's favorite programs was created. It was different, among other things, because the same characters appear throughout the program: King Ferdinand, Rudy, Hania, Lutek Romczyk, Hieronim, Pelargonia, and the mean Jacuś. It was 1993.

Robin Hood - czwarta strzała

An alternative version of the famous bandit's story (or maybe that's how it really was). Robin struggles with questions about the meaning of life, as well as with ugly rich people and intrusive poor people who want to build themselves a poor castle. The film is a parody of the fairy tale about the legendary robber Robin Hood, the times of feudalism, and the struggle for money. The narrator introduces the viewer to the world of medieval England, where feudalism reigned supreme. He tries to convey to the viewer an alternative, as natural and true as possible, story of the famous robber and his band - who robbed the rich to give to intrusive beggars for the construction of their own small, poor castles.
