This Year's Controversial Movie

Every year there's usually one film that generates controversy at the festival. Back in 2004, "Casuistry: The Art of Killing a Cat" generated protests outside the cinema. This year, it seems that "D.O.A.P." will be that film. Peter Howell of the Toronto Star wrote this article today:
