Founded in 2001, the INSTITUTE OF DOCUMENTARY FILM (IDF) is a non-profit training and networking centre based in Prague, Czech Republic, focused on the support of East European documentary films and their wider promotion. Our activities support filmmakers through all stages of completion – development, funding, production, post-production, and distribution. We aim at individual filmmakers (tailored consultations), groups of carefully selected professionals with projects or films (Ex Oriente Film, East European Forum, East Silver, Doc Launch, etc.), broader professional community (East Doc Platform), as well as the general public (portal www.DOKweb.net). We closely work with key int. festivals, broadcasters, distributors, sales agents, markets, or training initiatives and serve as the GATEWAY TO EAST EUROPEAN DOCUMENTARY FILM.

A brief look at all the colours and tweaks over the years...

 

Our first home was at www.DOCUinter.net, painted in sober grey with orange highlights, designed by Hynek Alt.  

In 2006, we switched to the sleek black by Petr Krejzek (ReDesign). The refreshed portal introduced the Map of Eastern Europe, a directory of festivals, organizations, directors, producers, distributors, grants, funds and institutional support for documentary filmmaking in 13 East European countries. We also provided an overview of important dates and deadlines for international events, festivals, markets or grant applications.

In 2009, we processed more than 6000 completed Czech and East European films, and over 4500 entries on film professionals. We also decided to merge the once separate websites of the Institute of Documentary Film and the East Silver market.

In 2010, www.DOKweb.net - the black-on-white scheme by Richard Rozhoň, Tomáš Varga, Jaromír Skácel and Jakub Samek (Mütanta), and Petr Babák (Laboratory) - was first launched with larger databases and unified information about all of our activities.

In 2011, the website had another facelift to clear up the layout for the expanded scope of our activities.
