As part of the Take One Action film festival in Scotland, we’re pleased to be a partner for the closing night screening of The New Corporation, showing in both Glasgow and Edinburgh, as well as online.

From the filmmakers of 2003’s global hit “The Corporation” comes this “unfortunately necessary sequel”, which investigates how the corporate takeover of society is being justified by the sly rebranding of corporations as socially-conscious entities.

From the climate crisis to racial injustice and surging inequality, The New Corporation lays bare the disturbing realities of companies’ desperation to achieve profit at any cost.

Far from a sigh of despair, however, this punchy documentary celebrates the groundswell of movements taking to the streets in pursuit of justice and the planet’s future – providing a rallying cry for social justice, deeper democracy, and transformative solutions.

Stay on after the film for a panel and audience discussion – including more info on campaigns and actions relating to the content of the film.
