The festival is organized by Pärnu IVA Society. This festival is the oldest festival in Baltic states.[1]

Before 2019 the festival was called as Pärnu International Documentary and Anthropology Film Festival.[1]

Festival's idea came from Lennart Meri. First festival took place in 1987.[1]

Festival's main topics are related to survival of indigenous people and their cultures. In addition, festival shows also films about social interpretations of contemporary society, or films about interesting people.[1]
