If you are in the good ole US of A there might be a few treats waiting for you at home courtesy of your cable provider.  Both Time Warner Cable and Direct TV are offering three documentaries about the Arab world for free courtesy of the Sundance Channel.  I have not seen Hometown Baghdad yet, but I really enjoyed both Slingshot Hip-hop and Heavy Metal Baghdad.   Some of these might only be available for a few more days, so watch ‘em while you can.

I am not sure about Direct Tv, but if you have Time Warner here are the steps:

1) Go to “On Demand” (usually channel 1)

2) Select Movies

3) Select Free Movies

4) Select “Sundance Channel”

5) Enjoy

6) Tell us in the comments what you think of the docs in the comments section.
