Besides making her own films, she also collaborates on other independent film projects as script editor and editor.

Her recent films Frem (2019), White on White (Bílá na bílé, 2020) and Notes from the Eremocene (2023) have been presented at numerous international film festivals and won several awards. Frem and Notes from Eremocene had their international premiere at Berlinale in the Forum section. In 2014, she made the film Gottland, an adaptation of the best-selling collection of reportages by Mariusz Szczygieł.
