Re: [Frameworks] Experimental film in the Czech Republic
The Jihlva International Documentary Film Festival show some experimental work. They have programmed some of my more abstract work in the past (that I certainly never considered documentary in nature)... so I think that their definition of documentary is very open. I have never been, but would one day love to go. http://www.dokument-festival.com/ Amanda Dawn Christie www.amandadawnchristie.ca ama...@amandadawnchristie.ca ___ On 1-Oct-12, at 2:52 AM, Pip Chodorov wrote: Of course they are not the same!

Re: [Frameworks] Experimental film in the Czech Republic
Hi, the Olomouc festival Pip mentioned is called PAF http://www.pifpaf.cz/en. The Jihlava festival does show some experimental films somehow trying to squeeze them into a category of experimental documentaries, it being a documentary festival in the first place, but it is definitely good place to go (starts in three weeks) for film culture in general. Then there are some occasional things happening for example in Skolska Gallery, Tranzit Display or in Kino Ponrepo (the film archive's cinema) or elsewhere, but nothing really regular. Feel free to contact me off-list, I'm a local, FAMU student.

[Frameworks] Experimental film in the Czech Republic
Hey all! I'm just getting settled in to the Czech Republic and was wondering if anyone could tell me if there are any decent festivals or screening spaces for experimental film. I've asked around but details are scant. Thanks again! -Jake Barningham ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

Re: [Frameworks] Experimental film in the Czech Republic
Jake: Not in the Czech Republic, but do consider coming to visit your Eastern European colleagues in Serbia. I've never been to the Czech Republic but I imagine it is a short plane ride to Belgrade (or a short bus ride from Vienna). Alternative Film/Video Belgrade (5-9 December) is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. We consider ourselves the premiere event for avant-garde/experimental film and video in the Balkans. Furthermore, we are the oldest continuously-running festival of avant-garde/experimental film and video in Europe. If you are academically inclined, this year we are hosting the 1st Alternative Film/Video Research Forum (with participants from Australia, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, and more). If you are a film and/or video artist, we are currently still accepting submissions for the festival. Please check our website for more details.
