Hot Docs Launches Online Library

Hot Docs, the annual film festival that showcases some of the best documentaries from around the world, has just launched an online library featuring hundreds of Canadian docs. This includes recent popular docs like Let's All Hate Toronto, Last Call at the Gladstone Hotel and Daddy Tran: Life in 3D to name a few.

At first glance, the new site is impressive, offering users the ability to sort movies by most popular, by year, as well as special sections such as those devoted to CitySonic and interviews by Brian Linehan. If I had one wish, though, is that the videos could be embeddable so I could include some samples right here on this site.

According to Hot Docs, all films in the library are directed by filmmakers whose works have screened at Hot Docs, and many of the titles are works that have either shown at the festival or their excellent Doc Soup series.
