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.

Ján Koniarek / Pri múre, Slovak Republic, 60 min, DV, Arts and Culture, Culture
In the course of the four seasons, we present the rise of Slovak sculpture, focusing on the work of Ján Koniarek [1878 – 1952]. The film is built around the preparations for a stage performance of a one-man act using the protagonist and the testimonies of experts and lay enthusiasts from Slovakia and Serbia. Ján Koniarek studied in Budapest, Rome, and Munich. During his nine-year long sojourn in Belgrade, he became well-known for his monumental and portrait works of the local leading figures. Back home, oppressed by the political and bureaucratic powers, he gained recognition only at the end of his life. In the spirit of Christian apostolate, his work reveals the power of authentic experience and sculpture mastery with a wide range of means of expression and human knowledge. These too are the reasons why art historians agree that he was the founder of Slovak sculpture.
