The 2008 CounterCorp Anti-Corporate Film Festival is a three-day series of films, post-screening discussions, and related events held in San Francisco. By "anti-corporate" we don't just mean "independent" (i.e., non-corporate) films, but those that examine and reflect the role that corporations play in our daily lives, and the effect they have on people, communities, and cultures around the world — and on the planet itself. The 2008 Festival offers a series of U.S. and foreign films, including both feature-length and short documentary and narrative (fictional) films. The goals of the Festival are to raise public and media awareness, promote critical thought and analysis, and encourage informed discussion and debate about how corporations actually operate, and what they really add to — and subtract from — humanity's "bottom line".
