THE CORPORATION

This entertaining and hard-hitting feature documentary analyzes the
very
nature of the corporate institution, its impacts on our planet, and
what
people are doing in response. Based on Joel Bakan’s book “The
Corporation:
The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power”, the film features
Michael
Moore, Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, Vandana Shiva, Howard Zinn and Milton
Friedman and over 30 other corporate insiders and critics including The
FBI’s top consultant on psychopaths and one corporate spy. The film has
been
generating popular support from street level to the boardrooms of the
Corporate Social Responsibility movement.
