About [Edit]
CounterCorp
is an anti-corporate non-profit organization based in San Francisco,
California. Among other programs, it organizes the annual Anti-Corporate Film Festival, an annual three-day series of movies, discussions, and related events
held in San Francisco.
The
goal of the CounterCorp Festival is to generate public and media attention,
stimulate critical thought and analysis, and encourage informed
discussion and debate about how corporations actually operate, the
effects they have on the lives and cultures of people around the world — and the planet itself — and what they really contribute to
society's "bottom line."
The Festival is open to U.S. and
foreign-made, feature-length and short, documentary and narrative (i.e., fictional)
films, including animation. We also accept suggestions for
potential films and speakers.
The film submissions deadline is
generally three months before the Festival begins, and the final
program is announced about a month before the Festival.
The
festival does not accept corporate funding, relying instead on
donations and other forms of support from members of the public and
local small businesses, an all-volunteer staff, and proceeds from
ticket sales and non-festival events.
