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.

Synopsis Credits Languages Production IDF Events Festivals Photogallery

With my brother in Alaska is a project of Czech Television; it wants to present the environment of the northernmost state of the US. In the second part of the trilogy the boys have to part with their father - a scientist - for some time, because of his work duties. In order to replace their father the boys' grandfather takes them into town, shows them a farm for breeding and training sledgedogs, and finally they go into the mountains to fix up a hunting log-cabin. They travel a thousand kilometres by jeep, sail over the Lake Taylor in a motorboat and wander through the virgin country until they reach the log-cabin. The boys love the trip, they like the backwoodsman's lifestyle, animals and the wild. They are all having fun up to the moment the grandfather breaks his leg when stepping on a hidden hunting trap and blood-poisoning puts his life in danger. The boys have to transport the injured man back to civilization.
