The East Doc Platform (EDP) is the largest co-production, funding and distribution platform tailor-made for Central and East European documentaries. Every year, connecting 120 East European filmmakers to more than 100 key decision makers - producers, broadcasters, distributors and festival programmers from around the world.
Dates: March 3 - 9, 2018
Where: Prague, Czech Republic
The East Doc Forum is the flagship pitching opportunity for the funding and co-production of projects in the development/early production stage.
The East Doc Market offers curated meetings between filmmakers and decision makers to pitch projects in the late production/post-production stage.
Meanwhile, the new East Doc Interactive facilitates collaboration between the storytellers and potential partners through a round-table pitch.
In 2018, IDF is launching a partnership with the Tribeca Film Institute to stimulate short form documentary storytelling. For the first time, IDF presents the IF/Then Short Pitch that will take place in the Central European region! The winner will receive USD 20,000 to complete the film and the IF/Then support for multi-platform distribution.
Within the EDP programme, one event is dedicated only to Czech documentary projects. During the presentation Czech Docs... Coming Soon, five upcoming feature documentaries will be introduced to an audience of the invited representatives of prestigious film festivals, sales agents, distributors and to the wide public.
The event is organized by the Institute of Documentary Film in association with the One World International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival.
