The theme of Nika Papadopulosová's graduation film Polednice is a ballad from the collection Kytice by Karel Jaromír Erben. The author avoids illustrative processing of the classic theme and presents its contemporary interpretation, for which she uses progressive digital technology. Actress Monika Načeva, in the role of the mother of a naughty child, moves in the virtual environment of a futuristic kitchen, where she copes with the choice between maternal duties and the entertainment of the virtual world. In contrast to the fantastic scenography and music by Jan P. Muchov, actress Jaroslava Adamová recites the traditional wording of the ballad. A professional film crew consisting of cameraman Asen Šopov, sound engineer Ondřej Ježek and producer Martin Kořínek participated in the production of the film, and the post-production of the work was carried out in the graphic studio of Nova Television.
