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.

Paper Heads

Papírové hlavy, Czech Republic, 1996, 96 min, Creative, Politics, Society
“I think that we are unable to deal with our own past. Paper Heads is a reflection on freedom and lack of freedom. It talks about the relationship between the citizen and power and the lack of respect for human rights in the Czechoslovakia of 1945–1989. The film takes place in the framework of street theatre. The conclusion extends these happening motives by contemporary reflections of our times. The structure of the film is built around key events of the past regime and archive footage is applied in shortened, paradoxical and even humorous ways. In the testimonies I looked for the people’s concrete human and universal dimensions in order to combine them in an emotional picture of man in socialist society.” Dušan Hanák
