Summary
Colombia is the trade union murder capital of the world. Since 2002, more than 470 workers' leaders have been brutally killed there, usually by paramilitaries hired by private companies intent on crushing the unions. Among these unscrupulous corporate brands is the poster child for American business: Coca-Cola. These unpunished crimes spur American activists David Kovalik, Terry Collingsworth, and Ray Rogers into an ambitious crusade against the soft drink giant. A searing indictment of a major corporate brand, The Coca-Cola Case is a riveting documentary that invites viewers into a game of cat and mouse via the U.S. federal court and the Campaign to Stop Killer Coke. After five years of struggle, will Coca-Cola yield in the end? And on the verge of a settlement, what will the victims choose: cash, or power and integrity?
