The Corporation
A Film by Mark Achbar - Jennifer Abbott and Joel Bakan
About The Film
WINNER OF 26 INTERNATIONAL AWARDS! 10 Audience Choice Awards including the 2004 Sundance Film Festival.
Provoking, witty, stylish and sweepingly informative, THE CORPORATION explores
the nature and spectacular rise of the dominant institution of our time. Part
film and part movement, The Corporation is transforming audiences and dazzling
critics with its insightful and compelling analysis. Taking its status as a
legal "person" to the logical conclusion, the film puts the corporation on the
psychiatrist's couch to ask "What kind of person is it?" The Corporation
includes interviews with 40 corporate insiders and critics - including Noam
Chomsky, Naomi Klein, Milton Friedman, Howard Zinn, Vandana Shiva and Michael
Moore - plus true confessions, case studies and strategies for change.
"AN OVERWHELMING AMOUNT OF OUTSTANDING EXTRAS, there is basically another 6-hour
(!) documentary included." MovieFreak
