Hoop Dreams. Just watched it. Only heard about it on Off The Ball the other night. Best sports documentary ever. Do yourselves a favour and watch this lads.

Deliver Us From Evil
 
An Oscar nominated documentary from a few years back about a paedophile Irish priest in California.  When the church elders found out about him, he was simply moved on to another parish.
 
There's a scene in the movie where the father of one of the victims breaks down in tears because he knows he facilitated the abuse of his daughter by inviting the priest to stay at their home.  Truly he is a picture of a broken man.  It makes you ashamed to be Catholic.

anyone got any good documentaries they've watched? saw one on the civil war in sri lanka which reached boiling point in 2008. It was prepared by channel 4 and provides conclusive evidence of war crimes in that country. not sure if any people are being prosecuted but raises serious questions not only to the sri lankan goverment but also the UN's handling of the whole situation (as usual, a complete f**k up).

As suggested earlier in the thread
 
The Death of Yugoslavia (Part 1)
 
 
 
Excellent 6 part documentary about the wars in Yugoslavia in the early to mid 90's
