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.

At Equilibrium

Bulgaria, Germany, 2010, 32 min, HD, Adventure and Sports, Society
Like the ubiquitous Coca Cola came appearing in Africa in the 80s, the American invention of snowboarding has been exported to nearly every snowy locale in the world. But access to snowboarding in most former Communist countries and the Near East didn't even formally exist before 1990 - all you could get were black market decks, bindings and magazine scraps smuggled in from "free" European countries. The residue of economic and cultural isolation still lingers. At the same time, the contemporary snowboard scene in the Near East as well as in Eastern Europe is strong. Snowboarding is not a counter-culture symbol like it is in the playgrounds of the affluent - it is about as robust an outlet of personal expression and freedom as you can get. They don't just "get it", they truly live it.
