A Documentary Addict's Dream Come True

I want to share the most important website I have discovered in a very long time. http://www.freedocumentaries.org/ has a long list of the most thought provoking, insightful documentary films available.. free to watch at your convenience. The list is too long for me to include here, but you will be astonished at what you will find.. The best of the most important documentaries anywhere.. some impossible to find anywhere else.

I happened upon FreeDocumentaries.org while searching for documentary films about India, and found 'The Slow Poisoning of India'. Half way into this disturbing film I noticed a very tiny message at the top of the screen which read: "If you like this film please donate". I live on a poverty level income and $10. goes a long way with me, but I didn't hesitate for a moment in making a donation. The folks who make these life-altering films available to the public are providing a public service that is priceless.

Did you miss Michael Moore's 'SICKO' when it played at your local theatre? You can watch it for free at http://www.freedocumentaries.org/. Here are some of my favorites, and this is only taste of what you will find:

This only scratches the surface. After watching my first film, I couldn't wait to e-mail everyone on my mailing list about this gold mine of docs and found myself writing in the subject line:
"Who needs TV?"
I have been riveted to my screen since. Check it out, and do donate to this extraordinary effort to raise public awareness on the most important issues today.

Watch free movies and documentary films
