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.

Hello

Hallo, Austria, 2006, 7 min, 16 mm, Experimental

Synopsis Credits Languages Production Sales IDF Events Photogallery

In Austria the word "Hallo" is used not only as a greeting, but also as an expression of surprise and acknowledgement. Dietmar Brehm chose this title for his film, as a reference to the moment he found some footage which inspired him: a 16mm Soviet movie from WWII. A 39-second sequence from it was mounted in a loop. In Hello the glaring artillery fire tearing into the black night sky surpasses its historical context. It takes on an abstract beauty which Brehm puts into new perspective by means of the soundtrack.
