Thought-provoking political documentary by Canadian filmmakers
Jennifer Abbott and Mark Achbar. In the mid-19th century, American
corporations began to be legally recognised as individuals, a move
that has given them unprecedented rights. In collaboration with
novelist Joel Bakan, the filmmakers pose the question: if a
corporation was a person, what sort of person would it be? Applying
psychiatric principles and social research, they come to the
conclusion that this 'person' would be a power-hungry, egocentric
and highly destructive psychopath. The film won Best Documentary
World Cinema Audience Award at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival.
