The Corporation
THE CORPORATION explores 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 its legal status as a "person" to its logical conclusion, the film puts the corporation on the psychiatrist's couch to ask "What kind of person is it?"
The Corporation Filmmakers Official Download Edition
Winner, 26 international awards, 10 of them audience awards, including Sundance.
In law, a corporation is a "person". But what kind of person is it?
THE CORPORATION engages in a lively, critical exploration of the dominant institution of our time - its inner workings, curious history, controversial impacts, and possible futures. Case studies, anecdotes, and true confessions expose influences in both the corporate and anti- corporate worlds. With dark wit, footage from pop culture, advertising, TV news, and corporate propaganda, the film illuminates the corporation's grip on our lives.
THE CORPORATION asks: What are the consequences - for human beings, democracy, and the ecology - of granting immense power to a structurally amoral institution, whose overriding priority is to create wealth for its shareholders?
As worldwide concern about the growth of corporate power intensifies, THE CORPORATION canvasses insiders, outsiders, radicals, and conservatives, in 40 interviews with CEOs, whistleblowers, brokers, gurus, and a corporate spy.
The Copyright owners of this excellent have for years refused to allow free distribution on the Internet (We asked politely for permission to distribute it by BitTorrent back in 2004 and were denied). Luckily, they recently changed their minds. This is the official "download edition" released November 14th, 2006. Official story regarding this release is this:
Why a Download Edition?
Filmmaker Mark Achbar explains: "When I discovered that over 500,000 people had downloaded The Corporation, I had mixed feelings. As a filmmaker and activist, one of my goals is to reach the largest possible audience. So from that perspective, it's an astounding success."
"But I also organized the financing of the film and have ongoing obligations to the individuals and public funders that invested in it. THE CORPORATION was a huge undertaking. Over two hundred people helped make the film, the DVD, and website, and worked on the outreach campaign, over a period of 8 years."
"My hope is that people downloading will keep in mind this is not another mega-corp Hollywood product; it's an independently produced film. I believe people appreciate what an enormous effort it takes to make a film like THE CORPORATION and will support it, if there's a reasonably easy way to. So, I decided to release my own top quality download version, but with a short ad promoting the DVD's extras, and a request from me, asking viewers for a little financial consideration to help offset the costs of production and keep our outreach efforts going. We now have a "contribute" button on our website, www.thecorporation.com. I hope people will decide to use it, and encourage their friends to as well. Every contribution helps and is deeply appreciated whatever the amount."
