The Toronto International Film Festival has renamed their Real to Reel programme TIFF Docs, likely to capitalize on the explosive popularity of Hot Docs. With this change comes the announcement of this year's selections, including entries from Alex Gibney (Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson), Julien Temple (The Filth and the Fury), and Errol Morris (The Fog of War).

Music lovers will want to check out the brutal legal battle between a music label and Jared Leto's band Thirty Seconds to Mars (Artifact), as well as the epic time-travelling voyage to the heart of the hometown of Sex Pistols' chronicler Julien Temple, who proposes it's the modern Babylon. From musicians, writers and artists to dangerous thinkers, political radicals and above all ordinary people, this is the story of London's immigrants, its bohemians and how together they changed the city forever (London - The Modern Babylon).

Three separate docs (A World Not Ours, The Gatekeepers, and State 194) enter the troublesome ring of Middle East politics.

If, like me, biographical docs are more your speed, then you have the opportunity to learn how Jamaica transformed rapper Snoop Dogg into a Lion (Reincarnated), explore the media manipulation in the arrest of Roman Polanski (Odd Man Out), hear a recounting of the life and troubled times of controversial Cineplex founder Garth Drabinsky (Show Stopper), or voyeuristically comb through forty years of correspondence between playwright Sam Shepard and best friend Johnny Dark (Shepard & Dark).

Some seriously investigatory docs include a look at the abuse of power in the catholic church (Mea Maxima Culpa), Ben Johnson's 1988 Seoul Olympics steroid scandal (9.79*), and the notorious case of five black and Latino teenagers who were wrongly convicted of raping a woman known as the Central Park Jogger (Central Park Five).

Such multifaceted topics as pimps (Iceberg Slim), drug dealers (How to Make Money Selling Drugs), mass murderers (Act of Killing), moon worshippers (Lunarcy!), disco dancers (Secret Disco Revolution), underground dwellers (No Place on Earth), daring surfers (Storm Surfers 3D), and of course bees (More Than Honey) help round out the docs schedule.
