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.

The Kaplinski System

The Kaplinski System, Estonia, France, 2011, 54 min, DVD, HD, Arts and Culture, Personal View, Philosophy, Portrait
Two friends, one a French photographer and filmmaker, the other a famous Estonian thinker and poet. Two people from two different generations, but a great friendship. For several weeks, Räphael Gianelli-Meriano filmed Jaan Kaplinski’s everyday life at his house in the countryside, in his domestic context. Jaan Kaplinski is an appreciated literary figure. His poems have been translated into twenty different languages and are read on every continent. He has often been nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Raphäel Gianelli-Meriano loves Estonia and he realized many films and a photographic work about the Estonian country. This film is a reflection on the role of a contemporary poet, on nature as he sees it and the current place of poetry in our world.
