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.

Figuring Out Father
The documentary film shows Sophie Templer-Kuh, a Jewish woman born 1916, on a search for her Austrian father, anarchist and psycho-analyst Otto Gross. This takes her to the early years of the modern age, to Vienna of the 1910s and 20s. Her search for her lost story, and that of her family, is an emigrant's look at Europe, the look of a woman who gradually realizes how much her father influenced the contemporary values of a liberal, self-determined and individualistic society.
