Goat Story
Goat Story – The Old Prague Legends (Czech: Kozí příběh - pověsti staré Prahy) is a 2008 Czech animated fantasy comedy film produced and directed by Jan Tománek and written by Tománek with David Sláma. The first Czech-produced feature-length computer-animated film, it features animation by Art And Animation Studio (AAA Studio), and was released on 19 May 2010 in the United States.
The film features the voices of Jiří Lábus, Matěj Hádek, Mahulena Bočanová, Michal Dlouhý, Petr Pelzer, Jan Přeučil, Viktor Preiss, Miroslav Táborský, Karel Heřmánek, Petr Nárožný, Dalimil Klapka, Pavel Rímský, Ota Jirák, Filip Jevič and Justin Svoboda. Produced over the course of five years with a budget of less than $3 million, only about ten animators and 3D graphic designers created it.
Goat Story was released in theatres in the Czech Republic on 16 October 2008 by Bontonfilm, and it won the main prize at the 2010 Buenos Aires International Children's Film Festival, and received nominations at other film festivals. A sequel, Goat Story 2, was released in 2012.
The story takes place in Prague during the reign of Charles IV, when the Charles Bridge and Prague Astronomical Clock were still undergoing construction. A villager named Jemmy arrives in the capital from the countryside with his goat. A poor student named Matthew arrives in Prague to study with Master Hanuš.
Jemmy and his goat stay in Prague to do work on the bridge. It is here that Jemmy meets Katie for the first time, and immediately falls in love with her. Katie is a city girl who supplies forged nails for the bridge's construction. Jemmy ends up causing the scaffolding on a side of the bridge to fall due to his carving of a statue of Katie from a support beam. He and his goat are banned by the workers.
In the meantime, Master Hanuš looks for sculptors and carvers for the Astronomical Clock statues. He catches a glimpse of Jemmy, and is interested with his natural woodcarving talent. Matthew, being the target of ridicule by other students because of his poverty, studies with Master Hanuš, too. He has gained his teacher's trust, and oversees the plans of the Astronomical Clock. Since Matthew has nowhere to sleep, he finds the Faust House in Prague, already abandoned at the time.
Thanks to his classmates' frequent ridicule, Matthew succumbs to the lure and picks up a grey tolar in Faust's house to pay for his classmates' drinks and fit in with his peers. However, they deceive him and destroy the plans to the Astronomical Clock while they are unguarded. The unsuspecting Matthew gives the ruined plans back to Master Hanuš. The Prague councillors discover the damaged plans, and demand punishment for Matthew. Matthew is placed in a pillory for one day. Because he does not know what he did wrong, he plans to take revenge on Master Hanuš. When Master Hanuš and Jemmy finally complete the Astronomical Clock, they get no respect or recognition.
The Chinese government asks Master Hanuš to make an Astronomical Clock in their city, too. Matthew glimpses this discussion, but meanwhile signs a contract with Satan.
