The movie this month will be "Wal-Mart: the High Cost of Low Price" (98

giant's assault on families and American values. The film dives into the
deeply personal stories <http://www.walmartmovie.com/people.php>  and
everyday lives of families and communities struggling to fight a
goliath. A working mother <http://www.walmartmovie.com/diane_devoy.php>
is forced to turn to public assistance to provide healthcare for her two
small children. A Missouri family
<http://www.walmartmovie.com/red_esry.php>  loses its business after
Wal-Mart is given over $2 million to open its doors down the road. A
mayor struggles to equip his first responders after Wal-Mart pulls out
and relocates just outside the city limits. A community in California
unites, takes on the giant, and wins! Producer/Director Robert Greenwald
<http://www.robertgreenwald.org/about.php>  and Brave New Films
<http://www.bravenewfilms.org>  take you on an extraordinary journey
that will change the way you think, feel -- and shop.
