Explore the nature and spectacular rise of the dominant institution of our time. Footage from pop culture, advertising, TV news, and corporate propaganda illuminates the corporation’s grip on our lives. Taking the corporation’s legal status as a “person” to its logical conclusion, the film puts the business entity on the psychiatrist’s couch to ask, “What kind of person is it?” Provoking, witty, and sweepingly informative, The Corporation includes 40 interviews with corporate insiders and critics—including Milton Friedman, Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, and Michael Moore—plus true confessions, case studies, and strategies for change.
