Freedocumentaries.org strongly believes that in order to have a true democracy, there has to be a free flow of easily available information. Unfortunately, many important perspectives, opinions and facts do not make it to our televisions or cinemas, so the site was set up to allow anyone with an internet connection to watch a movie and educate themselves or simply explore another perspective whenever they want., free of charge. The site also enables the work of independent filmmakers to be accessible. Documentaries are arranged in the categories: 9/11 and London Bombing; Activist ; Animal Abuse; Election Fraud; Environmental ; Female-Focused; George Bush; Globalization; Health; Human Rights; Media; Politicians; Religious; Slavery; Societal; War Documentaries.
