San Francisco’s Victoria Theatre is hosting an Anti-Corporate Film Festival, showcasing documentaries and feature films with a critical view of corporations and their effects on the world. Films being shown include “Before the Music Dies,” a look at the music industry featuring Erykah Badu, Calexico, and others, and “The Method (El Metodo),” a drama about corporate competition written by Mateo Gil, writer of “Vanilla Sky.” Organized by CounterCorp, a nonprofit group dedicated to challenging “business as usual,” the festival will be held from Thursday, Oct. 18-Oct. 20.
The Victoria Theatre is located at 2961 16th Street. Admission to the festival is $10, or $5 with a student ID. For more information, visit http://www.countercorp.org/countercorp-festival.htm.
