Institute of Documentary Film’s Activities
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.

Update Information About Your Project

Let us know about the latest development of your projects and we will try to support them on their way to distribution. We welcome updates on East European documentary films in the production and post-production stage and all the projects that formerly participated in Ex Oriente Film or East European Forum. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!

We would like to ask you to help us update the listings of your projects. You can send us new film stills, trailers or clips and update the synopsis and the credits. We would also appreciate if you could estimate the date of completion and let us know the month or season when the film is going to be completed . On the basis of this feedback, we will be able to plan further support for your projects in the next few months.

Doc Launch consists of the annual Doc Launch presentation and the year-long Doc Launch programme that supports East European documentary films at international events, providing them with consultations and networking possibilities aimed at facilitating distribution.
