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.

Coal

Węgiel, Poland, 2003, 27 min, Beta SP, Human Rights, Portrait, Society
It is a story of boys from Silesia who make their living picking coal along railroad tracks. Coal is the leitmotif of the tale. It is bread and butter, it gets you through another day, gives you a job and takes it away. Part of this narrative is another story, related to the mothers of boys who died on the track hit by a passing train.
