East European Forum is a unique meeting of East European documentary filmmakers and significant European commissioning editors where the filmmakers and their independent producers offer their creative projects for co-production. Organized by the Institute of Documentary Film, the East European Forum is the region's largest meeting of East European documentary filmmakers with leading European commissioning editors, distributors, buyers and film fund representatives. Directors and independent producers offer their projects for co-production, presale or any other form of financial support. The foundation of the Forum created an alternative in Central Europe to the previous practice which relied on funding provided by the state or by local broadcasters. During its existence, the Forum has become a prestigious meeting place that has, since 2001, hosted 372 East European filmmakers and producers, 53 TV representatives and dozens of international distributors, buyers and festival programmers. This year's preparatory workshop, sidebar programme and public pitching will be attended by more than 70 documentary professionals. In 2007, nearly 30 documentary films were made with the support of the Forum.
