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.

On 7 December 1988, thousands of people died in the Armenian city of Gyumri under an earthquake. More than one third of them were children. Bereaved parents responded by giving newly born babies names after their deceased brothers or sisters, which in many cases led to problems with identification, and many still believe that the soul of their departed brother or sister lives with or within them, as shown in a documentary about the life after the disaster, shot during three years.
