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.

Over the Bridge

Cez most, Slovak Republic, 2008, 45 min, Religion, Society
The story of a young woman from Slovakia who lives in Germany with a Muslim. In order to get to know him better, she had to marry him according to Islam. Shortly after that, she voluntarily converted to Islam and as a sign of that started to wear a scarf. Because of fear of not being understood, she keeps it a secret from her parents for five years. Now she decides, however, to confirm her relationship by means of a typical wedding in Slovakia. What must she do in order to bring together her own (already Islamic) views and those of her parents? Is it possible at all, to find a bridge between the two very different cultures?
