Description
Summary:This thesis analyses the International Documentary Film Fest ival Jihlava from the point of view of the actor-network theory. Its focus is to understand various ways the festival (as unique and indispensable event in the cultural space) const ructs its identity. It suggests that the evolution of the Jihlava IDFF is possible only due to its formation as an actor-network - heterogeneous complexity of people, things and their interact ions. Network's capacity of effective transformations allows the festival to position itsel f on the domestic festival map and integrate successfully to the international film festival ci rcuit. The festival actor-network aims mainly to sustain and ampli fy its position of an unreplaceable cultural institution. Analogous to another festival networks, Jihlava IDFF t ries to produce certain cultural value - through the original agenda-setting, programming and the creation of a singular meeting point. And the identity of the Jihlava IDFF can be seen as the result of this network's complexity.
