eco trendy at hot docs

Topping the list of North America's largest documentary festival - the 2009 Hot Docs Film Festival in Toronto - is "The Cove," spotlighting the annual slaughter of more than 2,500 dolphins in Japan.

171 films from 39 countries will be screened at the 16th annual festival, 9 of which are environmentally-charged. "Waterlife" profiles the beauty and toxicity of the Great Lakes, while "End of The Line" delivers a disturbing wakeup call about humanity's overconsumption of fish.

"H2Oil" is an eye-popping exploration into the impact of the Alberta's Athabasca oil sands.
