I attended one of the HotDocs events last night and saw the viewing of “Death in the Garden of Paradise” and “Vendetta Song”. Two very powerful and extremely personal documentaries.

International film by Canadians is taking a large step in the right direction and being the diverse community that Toronto is, we should be out there supporting it. HotDocs is the largest documentary festival in North America and they are showing 100 Canadian and International documentaries until May 1st.

Best part is, you can have a Q&A session with the directors at the end of the Documentary as well.

Also to motivate people to go out and watch these documentaries, HotDocs is also providing free screenings before 6 pm to students or seniors, and for everyone after 11 pm.

More details are available at the HotDocs website at http://www.hotdocs.ca and tickets aside from the free screenings are available online as well.
