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 Distribution IDF Events Festivals Financial support Photogallery Articles

The film explores borders in the life of a woman who broke away from her family's expectations in 1939 and set out to define her own ground with her own rules. Lise Forell, a Brazilian painter of Czech-German descent, lives a happy life that is marked by constant obstacles and challenges. Yet she also has the willpower to overcome and go beyond any crises, social norms and boundaries in general. At 85 years of age, she is able to assess her remarkable life story without being sentimental, with a due distance and creative energy.
