Institute of Documentary Film’s Activities

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.

ABOUT EAST SILVER

ONLINE CATALOGUE AND DATABASE – essential reference guide to Eastern European docs
Printed catalogue distributed to over 500 hundred film professionals is mirrored in form of easy to navigate on‐line database at www.eastsilver.net. Eastern European documentary current production gathered at one place creates searchable up-to-date archive of titles with full film credits and trailers.

EAST SILVER TV FOCUS ‐ designed to enhance and increase documentary TV broadcast
We aim to widen the chances for TV broadcast of documentary films from our region. So in addition to our activities, we are now launching new service for producers, international documentary networks and TV buyers. Gaining substantial knowledge of broadcaster’s slots and also current programming needs, we individually select and recommend particular documentaries directly to the international TV stations and networks. With personal approach we make individual selection and recommend particular film titles from our large database, custom made to fit the TV slot, or to the actual needs of current programming.

East Silver Caravan promotes East European documentary films at the most important international documentary film festivals and markets each year. Travelling showcase of Eastern European documentary can be encountered at the most prestigious international film festivals and markets.
