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.

Niubo Jordi

Luxury
A portrait of British abstract painter Philip Diggle, conceived as a dynamic, colorful and unbridled collage of the views of the people surrounding him, archive material, films and videos from the years 1983-1996; the film attempts to probe the mind of this original artist and capture the essence of his specific kind of art.

New Czech Design
New Czech design presents the works of young Czech designers and at the same time offers reasons for why their work wins international recognition. The film also tries to raise the awareness about the meaning of design, to demonstrate its ability to influence the living environment and communication in a profound way. This first part of the documentary series about new Czech designers presents the work of the young generation of Czech designers. Ivan Dlabač, Michal Froněk, Petr Knobloch, Aleš Najbrt, Jan Němeček, Rony Plesl are among the young Czech designers who present their most "international" in the course of the film. The work is commented on not only by the designers but also by the investor and users. Audiences can see how and why the individual objects were made, and how well they serve their purpose.

Upgrade
A portrait of a man, who excels in many fields despite his handicap. A few hours from the life of Martin Kovář.

Egon Bondy - Fišer alias Bondy I, II
A profile of a bold, but controversial personality of Czech literature and philosophy.

Cinematherapy
Living in the age of reality TV, in a society hungry for sensation, it is easy to feed on the highly emotional stories of people whose futures are being shaped by dozens of professionals. "Cinematherapy" takes a slightly different approach. A commercial aired on Czech Television invited viewers to attend a casting and tell their stories. Later on, eleven of them underwent cinematherapy – provided by the camera as an intermediary between them and the outside world. Blurring the lines between feature film, documentary and reality show, the film does not offer the participants a plastic surgery or a reunion with a long lost friend but lets them witness their often bizarre lives and thus move forward in dealing with their issues.
