Documentary film buffs have a new place to enjoy their favourite movies.

The Ladner Pioneer Library is hosting documentary films streamed via Fraser Valley Regional Library’s Kanopy on Sunday afternoons from 2 to 4 p.m.

On Jan. 19, watch Where to Invade Next, a 2015 documentary by Academy Award-winning director Michael Moore.

In Where to Invade Next, Moore plays the role of invader, visiting a host of nations, including Italy, France, Germany and Tunisia, to commandeer policies and ideas that will improve prospects in America. What he finds is that solutions to America's most entrenched problems already exist in the world -- they're just waiting to be captured.

The creator of Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bowling for Columbine, Moore’s Where to Invade Next is provocative, subversive and hilarious. It is rated R for language, drugs, violence and brief nudity.

The future documentary line-up will continue with Plastic Planet on Feb. 9, Exit Through the Gift Shop on March 22 and Life, Animated on April 19.

Admission is free, but the library asks people to register online at www.fvrl.ca to ensure a spot. 

The Tsawwassen Library invites customers to drop in for Sunday Afternoon at the Movies where an assortment of highly-rated films will be shown every second and fourth Sunday of the month beginning this Sunday, Jan. 12 from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Refreshments will be offered.
