We are delighted to present the talk with Ally Derks, founder and long-time director of IDFA, for the Astra Film Festival audience. During her 1 hour discussion, she talked about setting up IDFA and the ways in which the festival works, as well as going in depth to our industry audience about the IDFA Forum, a pioneer platform which she initiated in the early 1990s, aimed to support the development of documentary projects. As a longtime supporter of the documentary format, Ally drew from her extensive experience in both programming and encouraging the development of documentary and gave advice to filmmakers in the audience.
