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.

Hanna & Violka

Hanna e Violka, Italy, Poland, 2009, 56 min, DV, Social Issues
Hanna Korszla, one of Italy’s 1 700 000 immigrant carers, has lived in the Salento for three years, looking after Antonio - who is over 80 and suffers from Alzheimer’s - day and night. Violka, her 19-year-old Polish daughter, is out of work. She takes on Hanna’s role as ‘Ntoni’s carer, enabling her mother to return to Poland to visit family. There Hanna comes to terms with a difficult past and a problematical present, while Violka, extremely young to look after such an old man, gets to grips with a stay in Italy which is anything but a holiday.
