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.

Journal No. 1 - An Artist's Impression

Journal No. 1 - An Artist's Impression, Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Italy, 2007, 21 min, Beta SP, Experimental
What is an archive? What can it tell us? How do we approach it and make it work for us? Journal No. 1 takes its title from the first newsreel made in Bosnia in1947, which was lost during the war in the early 1990s. Starting out from that loss and the missing archive, the film develops reflections on how collective andpersonal memories and history take shape. This is a reflection on the image through images, on how they take hold. Hito Steyerl takes us on a journey through fiction films, film archives and unusual accounts as he questions the images bound up with them all. He explores the way they have been manipulated and graduallysteers us towards the history of the last few years. Journal No. 1 uses and experiments with different levels of representation - words, drawings, film.
