Years ago, that love seemed so innocent. Today, however, the American dream is looking more like a nightmare as families pay the price with their jobs, their homes and their savings. Moore takes us into the homes of ordinary people whose lives have been turned upside down; and he goes looking for explanations in Washington, DC and elsewhere. What he finds are the all-too-familiar symptoms of a love affair gone astray: lies, abuse, betrayal…and 14,000 jobs being lost every day. Capitalism: A Love Story is both a culmination of Moore’s previous works and a look into what a more hopeful future could look like. It is Michael Moore’s ultimate quest to answer the question he’s posed throughout his illustrious filmmaking career: Who are we and why do we behave the way that we do? Capitalism: A Love Story will be released by Overture Films in NY & LA on Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009 and wide on Friday, October 2nd 2009 www.capitalismalovestory.com Press materials available at Overturefilms.epk.tv For more information on the film please contact Ella Robinson at Ella.Robinson@ or Joe Smithey Joe.Smithey@ THE FILM SOCIETY OF LINCOLN CENTER Under the leadership of Mara Manus, Executive Director, and Richard Peña, Program Director, The Film Society of Lincoln Center offers the best in international, classic and cutting-edge independent cinema.
