Year SIX – 1993 /April 4 – 11/
Festival director: Ivan Šmídl
Festival moderator: Jan Pokorný
A lack of films made in 1992 led to a shift of the festival to spring 1993. Division of the state to Czech and Slovak Republic afflicted also the festival dramaturgy. Thus Finále became a competitive and comprehensive overview of Czech feature-length production. The Slovak production was screened only in the framework of accompanying sections.
Films in competition: Kamarád do deště II. – Příběh z Brooklynu /J. Soukup/, Krvavý román /J. Brabec/, Mí Pražané mi rozumějí /V. Chytilová/, Černí baroni /Z. Sirový/, Nahota na prodej /V. Olmer/, Kačenka a strašidla /J. Polák/, Lepší je být bohatý a zdravý než chudý a nemocný /J. Jakubisko/, Don Gio /Š. a M. Cabanové/, Trhala fialky dynamitem /M. Růžička/, Dědictví aneb kurvahošigutntág /V. Chytilová/, Helimadoe /J. Jireš/, Něco lehčího /J. Císařovský, 16 mm print/
