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 the Datcha

Na dzialce, Poland, 2006, 26 min, Beta SP, Entertainment, Youth Documentary
This was/is holiday in the East: while the wife carries out precision work in white overcoat operating a machine at work, the deaf husband pushes a sack barrow. But at the Datcha he is the one in command. The Datcha is held together by more or less firmly fixed cardboard and tin pieces, only prevented from collapsing due to persistent efforts and sacrifies made by father and son. The car needs to be moved too - a task that requires the cumulated knowledge of the DIY man.
A holiday at the Datcha is the last big challenge for our civilization.
This calm observation with slapstick- elements shows how the East could survive for such a long time - what seems a miracle at the same time.
