Wal-Mart Nation
Wal-Mart Nation is a documentary about the international anti-Wal-Mart movement. The filmmakers were trying to answer the question, “how did the world’s most successful and influential company become the most hated?”. The film is a two-year-long journey into a contentious world of protests, pageants, union organizing, attack ads, dirty tricks and low prices. Wal-Mart’s emergence as a global corporate powerhouse has triggered and unprecedented political backlash. No company has ever faced such angry and organized opposition. The filmmakers were granted rare access both to Wal-Mart itself, and the inner sanctums of its bitterest enemies. Wal-Mart Nation stars 6 union activists, one Jesuit priest, 18,000 Wal-Mart shareholders, Jessica Simpson, and Miss America.
