Hundreds of docs offered free online, CBC (Feb 17)
Hot Docs, the documentary festival, has a website - Hotdocslibrary.ca with nearly 300 documentaries available for free viewing online.
"Hotdocslibrary.ca features full-length features by some of Canada's leading filmmakers including Jennifer Baichwal, Allan King, Jean-Daniel Lafond, Alan Zweig, Kevin McMahon, Shelley Saywell and Nettie Wild."
The non-flash version lets you browse by title or by one of four community groupings. Flash version supports search and My Playlists.
There are some wonderful docs here - such as The Rise and Fall of the Great Lakes, an NFB film from 1968 that takes a lone canoeist through the geological change on the lakes ending in the pollution of today from industry and population.
BTW- thank Heritage Canada - "This project was made possible with the support of the Department of Canadian Heritage through the Canadian Culture Online Strategy"
