Why you should watch: One of the most anticipated Canadian titles to stream this year is Tanya Talaga’s piercing and personal documentary series The Knowing. The series follows Talaga as she investigates the disappearance of a family member and examines the history and ongoing legacy of the residential school system. The Knowing thoughtfully blends lyrical narration, archival footage and first-hand experience to tell a wide-ranging story of survival and solidarity. And if you still haven’t got your documentary fix, check out Paid in Full: The Battle For Black Music by Idris and Sabrina Elba, now steaming.
