I just got started on this site, and I'm watching a 22 minute documentary about a small family owned poultry processing business. It looks like there are a lot of interesting titles.

"A National Preserve of Documentary Films about American Roots Cultures
streamed with essays about the traditions and filmmaking. The site includes transcriptions, study and teaching guides, suggested readings, and links to related websites."
