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 BFI London Film Festival showcases the best new films from around the world. Presented by the BFI, the Festival celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2006. Originally conceived as a 'festival of festivals', screening a selection of strong titles from other European festivals, the first London Film Festival screened 15 films from an impressive array of directors, including Luchino Visconti, Akira Kurosawa and Andrzej Wajda. The festival focuses primarily on bringing film to the public, offering opportunities for people to see films that would not otherwise get a UK screening but also screen films which will get a release in the autumn or spring. In addition to screenings of recent feature, short and experimental films from the UK, Europe and the rest of the world, the programme offers a number of retrospectives and a variety of discussions and seminars led by leading film professionals.
