All three began to work at the Koliba film studios[2] (then called the Feature Film Studio and the Short Film Studio) in Bratislava after graduation.

Uher first worked in the short film division. The first movie he directed was My z deviatej A about the life of a group of 15-year-old students and their school. His second feature was The Sun in a Net. His next two movies The Organ (1964),[3] and Three Daughters (1967) were based on screenplay by Alfonz Bednár.

He worked with a composer Ilja Zeljenka on 8 of his movies.[4]

Uher's last film She Grazed Horses on Concrete (1982) has remained one of Slovakia's most popular domestic productions through the 2000s.[5] The film was entered into the 13th Moscow International Film Festival where it won the Silver Prize.[6]
