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.

The Cans of Time is a film rendering of the themes and outcomes of the Family Archives project. The aim of the Family archives was to collect and digitalize amateur film footage from various regions across the Slovak republic. In four years we collected around 400 hours of footage. Apart from the popular and traditional family footage the project has managed to source some rare historical footage such as the one capturing the construction of a huge sculpture of the Slovak politician M.R. Štefánik in 1937, or a few cases of private footage capturing the Russian invasion of 1968. Of an interesting value is also the insight the footage offers into various forms and shapes of the life of the middle classes.
