The Corporation is one the most critically-acclaimed documentaries of this century. It examines the rise of the modern corporation as the dominant institution of our time. Once a minor entity, it now shapes economies, politics, and daily life across the globe.
Drawing on Joel Bakan’s book, the film investigates the corporation’s history, structure, and guiding motives. Through interviews with thinkers, insiders, whistle-blowers, and critics, it exposes how profit and power drive its behavior.
Voices like Noam Chomsky and Michael Moore help unpack its social and ethical consequences, highlighting the growing resistance challenging corporate influence and imagining possible alternatives.
