SYNOPSIS
On the 20-year anniversary of his groundbreaking Roger & Me, Michael Moore’s Capitalism: A Love Story returns to the issue he’s examined throughout his career: the disastrous impact of corporate dominance on the everyday lives of Americans and citizens of the world. But this time the culprit is much bigger than General Motors, and the crime scene far wider than Flint, Michigan. With both humor and outrage, he explores the vexing question of what price America pays for its love of capitalism. What he finds are the all too-familiar symptoms of a love affair gone astray: lies, abuse, betrayal... and 14,000 jobs being lost everyday. Capitalism: A Love Story is Michael Moore’s ultimate quest to answer the question: who are we and why do we behave the way that we do?
