WINNING FILMS

CZECH JOY

Award for best Czech documentary film of 2012

The jury recognized Fortress (Pevnost, Czech Republic, 2012) by the directing duo of Klára Tasovská and Lukáš Kokeš as a work that, although it does not look at the Czech Republic, offers Czechs an important message.

The documentary presents a visit to the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (a.k.a. Trans-Dniestr) as a trip to a museum of communist totalitarianism. The country, whose independence has been recognized by only a few other states, remains an isolated multi-ethnic enclave held together by an authoritarian regime. In a country where you are only allowed to film out the window of a train, the locals are afraid of being denounced but are glad to live in a comfortable refuge from the hectic modern world, and songs on television celebrate the president.

The jury also awarded honourable mention to two films – Two Nil (Dva nula, Czech Republic, 2012) by director Pavel Abrahám and Stone Games (Hra o kámen, Czech Republic, 2012) by director Jan Gebrt – for the meticulous and inventive approach to presenting two views of Czech society.

The jury included:

Ivan Havel / scientist (Czech Republic)

Martin Mareček / director and musician, last year’s winner (Czech Republic)

Tamara Moyzes / curator and filmmaker (Slovakia)

Jiří Šmíd / journalist and screenwriter (Czech Republic)

Vítězslav Schrek / musician and theatre professional (Czech Republic)

BETWEEN THE SEAS

Award for the best Central and Eastern European documentary film of 2012

The jury for the Between the Seas section chose director Srdjan Keča’sMirage (Great Britain, Serbia, 2011) for its daring and inventive approach to filmmaking.

Dubai becomes the setting for an audiovisual meditation contrasting the majestic and exuberant life of the big city with the uneasy and cheerless life of its inhabitants. The film captures Dubai after the economic crisis has interrupted an era of feverish construction, and creates a delicate impression where long rides through town alternate with close-ups of women lying on the beach and images of sandstorms burying construction workers.

The jury’s honourable mention went to director Igor Bezinović’s Blockade (Blokada, Croatia, 2012) for achieving an exceptional level of quality within the framework of a classical observational documentary as originally defined by John Grierson.

The jury included:

Jeremy Orlebar / radio and television producer, educator (Great Britain)

Mohammadreza Farzad / actor and documentary filmmaker (Iran)

Tomáš Hrubý / producer (Czech Republic)

Ted Grouya / producer and director (USA)

OPUS BONUM

Award for best international documentary film of 2012

As the sole juror of the Opus Bonum section, Belgian filmmaker Xavier Christiaens chose to present the section’s award to director Maiko Endo’s Kuichisan (Japan, USA, 2011), among other things for its multiple viewpoints and its fiery and intuitive approach, which with extreme sensitivity takes a broad view of time and various ways of working with images.

This portrait of Okinawa, a Japanese island formerly home to an American military base, is conceived as a young boy’s daydream-like wanderings, his attention randomly falling on various objects and events. The film thus represents a bold victory of cinematic intuition over method and order. The combination of 16mm black-and-white camera with colour images, a soundtrack disconnected from the images, and the blurring of the boundaries between documentary and fiction make this film an enigmatic but fascinating experience.

FASCINATIONS

Award for best experimental documentary film of 2012

The jury presented the award to director Robert Todd’s undergROWTH (USA, 2011), which they appreciated for the fact that it does not work with the usual artistic tools of experimental film, but instead modestly subordinates form to the message, which may just be the reason why the film manages to enter a fascinating realm of poetry.

The movement of an owl’s head becomes inspiration for the camera’s movement in nature as it shows the home of the Barred Owl, a nocturnal bird with distinctive colouring that we explore in many different close-ups. Eternal rules of survival, related to their excellent vision in the dark, are projected into meticulous observation of owl behaviour and movements that might represent danger.

- description taken from the catalogue for the 2012 Jihlava IDFF

The jury included:

Petr Skala / experimental filmmaker and documentarian (Czech Republic)

Hana Skalová / producer and radio scriptwriter (Czech Republic)

Bohdana Kerbachová / film historian and educator (Czech Republic)

SPECTATORS PRIZE

The Spectators Prize went to director Adam Ol'ha’s New Life of a Family Album (Nový život, Czech Republic, Slovakia, 2012).

In 2005, documentary filmmaker Adam Oľha’s father decided to leave his wife and six children in order to start a new life. As the oldest of the siblings and the only remaining man in the family, Adam explores his father’s old photographs, compares them with the present, and tries to discover what led to such a radical decision. He traces his parents’ relationship from its beginnings, reveals problems in communication between husband and wife at a particular time, and observes how they are reflected in the lives of his sisters.

INDUSTRY SECTION

The Industry Programme for supporting documentary film in Central and Eastern Europe concluded on Sunday, and some 400 film professionals – directors, television producers and purchasers from important European and American television stations, representatives from foreign film festivals and funds, distributors, sales agents, and other guests – headed home.

EMERGING PRODUCERS

This was the first edition of this promotional and educational project aimed at bringing together talented producers of documentary films from the EU. The workshop’s main goal is to bring together talented European producers and film professionals, in particular those focused on documentary cinema. We are convinced that this project will open up debate on the contemporary European production system, its effectivity and its limitations, and we hope that the project will succeed in identifying unused and as-of-yet undiscovered opportunities.

The project should also provide participating producers with information from the field of audiovisual production, increase their familiarity with the film market, and provide them with an opportunity to make contacts with producers from other countries, thus increasing the potential for future European co-productions.

Emerging Producers is realized in collaboration with the Media Desk offices in the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Croatia, Cyprus, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Norway, Poland, Austria, Greece, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain (Catalonia), and Switzerland, and MEDIA Antenna Torino.

The Czech Republic was represented by producer Hana Třeštíková; the main experts were Irena Taskovski and Pablo Benzi.

INSPIRATION FORUM

This unique project, curated by Filip Remunda, takes a new approach to bringing together the film and non-film world. Filmmakers work with each of the speakers in three phases in order to identify potential topics for documentary films. The first phase is also open to the general public. This is the first project of its kind at any film festival.

This year’s speakers were author and journalist Tariq Ali, Nobel Prize for literature laureate Gao Xingjian, and three members of the Ukrainian feminist group FEMEN.

New topics were developed with each of the three guests in three stages:

Part 1 / Public lecture and moderated discussion

Part 2 / Closed discussion among IF speakers and participants

Part 3 / One-on-one discussions between IF speakers and participants

A selection of participating directors: Norway: Truls Lie, Israel: Eran Barak, Hungary: Klara Trencsenyi, Germany: Michael Schmacke, Poland: Tomasz Jeziorski, Russia: Nikita Pavlov, Serbia: Srdjan Keča.

FESTIVAL IDENTITY

The goal of the third edition of this workshop for festival directors, programming directors, and commissioning editors was to provide a platform for sharing new information and for discussing subjects that bring festivals together and also keep them apart.

This year, the workshop’s practical section was expanded to two days. The programme included lectures and moderated discussions, as well as small meetings of groups of participants from various festivals. The two-day seminar was divided into four thematic blocks and small discussion groups.

DISTRIBUTION FORUM

The second edition of presentations of in-progress film projects for distributors, sales representatives, television purchasers, film festivals and other organizations. This promotional platform is focused on feature-length films with festival ambitions and on the search for ideal distribution strategies. The forum presented European documentary films at various stages of production of post-production. In 20- to 25-minute presentations, each film’s representative will show excerpts from the existing footage; introduce the film’s subject, concept, and documentary method; and summarize its financing and distribution status.

The Forum focused on the selected projects’ distribution aspects as well as on the filmmakers’ directorial and dramaturgical approaches. The presentations’ main audience consisted of distributors, sales agents, commissioning editors, theatre owners, and festival programming directors, who thus had an opportunity to discover and acquire new films for their distribution or programming.

INSTITUTE OF DOCUMENTARY FILM AT THE 16TH JIHLAVA IDFF

Silver Eye Award

During each year’s Jihlava IDFF closing ceremony, the Institute of Documentary Film presents the Silver Eye Award to three outstanding documentaries in three categories from the East Silver market.

Ex Oriente Film

This year, Jihlava hosted the second part of the 10th anniversary Ex Oriente Film workshop, which brings talented eastern European documentarians and producers to the Czech Republic. After a June workshop in Roztoky near Prague, creative teams for 13 documentary projects from Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Croatia, Hungary, Slovenia, Latvia, Russia, Estonia, and Georgia came together for another working week. During the workshop, participants focused in particular on budget strategy, the legal aspects of co-production, and other issues related to writing, the dynamics of the script, and the rough outlines of the edited product.
