ABOUT THE FILM:
Winner
of 26 International Awards including the 2006 Sundance Film Festival Award
for Best Documentary, THE CORPORATION is
a groundbreaking, Canadian
documentary film that explores the nature and frightening rise
of the dominant institution of our time.
Featuring interviews with over 40 daring commentators including
Michael Moore, Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, and even Milton Friedman, this
film has transformed audiences all around the World.
Taking its status as a legal "person" to its
harmful conclusions, the film puts the corporation on the psychiatrist's
couch to ask "What kind of person is this?" With
the current economic crisis wreaking
havoc on our society, THE
CORPORATION becomes even more relevant today than
ever! It's a must see!
Based on the book "THE CORPORATION: The Pathological
Pursuit of Profit and Power" by Joel Bakan, this film is
produced by Mark Achbar, Jennifer Abbott and Joel Bakan.

Screenings" still to come!
