200598 min6.2 / 10

A polemical documentary that centers the human cost of corporate consolidation through intimate portraits of families and workers resisting economic displacement.

This documentary takes the viewer on a deeply personal journey into the everyday lives of families struggling to fight Goliath. From a family business owner in the Midwest to a preacher in California, from workers in Florida to a poet in Mexico, dozens of film crews on three continents bring the intensely personal stories of an assault on families and American values.
