About Me


CounterCorp is a San Francisco-based anti-corporate non-profit organization. Our flagship program is the annual Anti-Corporate Film Festival, a three-day series of films, discussions, and related events held in San Francisco's Mission District.
(There's a link to the Festival website lower down on this page.)
The CounterCorp Festival seeks to examine the true nature of large corporations, the role they play in our communities and society, and the effects they have on people and cultures around the world — and on the planet itself.
The festival program includes U.S. and foreign-made, feature-length and short, documentary and narrative (fictional) films — as well as post-film discussions with film directors, activists, and academics.
The goal of the festival is to generate public and media attention, stimulate critical thinking and analysis, and encourage discussion and debate about how corporations actually operate, and what they really add to — and subtract from — society's "bottom line."
We welcome submissions to the Festival from filmmakers, and suggestions for films that we should show from the general public. For more information on CounterCorp and the Anti-Corporate Film Festival, visit our website at www.countercorp.org .
CounterCorp also organizes regular one-night films screenings in San Francisco, and runs an e-mail list called Corporation Watch that is designed to "shine a spotlight on corporate pathology".
