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.

Picturing the Moment
Bosnian born painter Dino Čečo has invented a way how to open the utterly visual world to people who cannot see. Thanks to this unique haptic method can blind people express themselves visually, paint their visions, dreams and feelings. Their work can then be "viewed" by another blind people at exhibitions. Jaroslav Černý's documentary tells us about the life of Dino Čečo and his work with blind children as well as about the creative visual world of the people without sight.
