Based on Bakan's book The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power, the film is a graphic and engaging quest to reveal the corporation's inner workings, curious history, controversial impacts and possible futures. Featuring illuminating interviews with Noam Chomsky, Michael Moore (FAHRENHEIT 9/11), historian Howard Zinn, "No Logo" author Naomi Klein (THE TAKE), as well as corporate honchos, whistleblowers and big business spies, THE CORPORATION charts the spectacular rise of an institution aimed at achieving specific economic goals as it also recounts victories against this apparently invincible force.
