DESCRIPTION:McLIBEL   Presented by Christine Morrissey  East Bay Animal Advocates     
 Two activists take on McDonald’s in the longest trial in English history. 
  This documentary film tells the inside story of how a single father and a 
 part-time bar worker took on the McDonald’s Corporation.  Filmed over 
 three years, the documentary follows Helen Steel and Dave Morris as they 
 are transformed from anonymous campaigners against the fast food giant into 
 unlikely global heroes.  Struggling to defend themselves, the pair face 
 infiltration by spies, secret meetings with corporate executives, 40,000 
 pages of background reading, and a visit from Ronald McDonald.  Using 
 interviews with witnesses and reconstructions of key moments in court, the 
 film examines the main issues of the trial -- nutrition, animals, 
 advertising, employment, the environment -- and the implications for 
 freedom of speech.  This film is not about hamburgers.  It’ s about the 
 remorseless power of multinational corporations.

 film, everyone’s invited to indulge in our Humanist Coffee House   $5 
 donations are accepted \n
