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.
The Balkans?

The Balkans?

The Balkans?, Croatia, 2005, 7 min, DV, Experimental
SynopsisStaffLanguagesProductionIDF Events
"The Balkans?" is an experimental documentary video done by use of animation. It explores the meaning of the term "Balkans" as a definition and notion, the difference between definitions and notions, and the way people construct meaning. I looked up what does it stand for in various encyclopedias and maps, and most of them define determined, and so the Balkans fails to exist as a geographical term. Other definitions are also vague, and so the Balkans doesn`t even exist as a valid term. It does exist as a widespread notion, a presumtion, prejudice based on stories of a doomed place and violent from the midsixteenth to late 20th centuries.
