“Wal-Mart:  The High Cost of Low Price” will screen at First Presbyterian Church tonight at 7 PM.

Immediately following, viewers will have the opportunity to “sign up for small-group discussions about the effect Wal-Mart will have
on Altadena, and the entire nation,” according to a press release.

the film, by director and producer Robert Greenwald, looks at the lives of people “struggling to fight against a goliath,” according to the release:

From a small business owner in the Missouri to a preacher in California, from workers in Florida to a poet in Mexico, dozens of film crews on three continents bring the story of an assault of families and American values. Current and former employees, managers and executives will tell all about the corporation’s inner-workings. Wal-Mart is based on individual human beings, all over the world, at all levels of society, telling their story in very personal terms.

Community members and local business owners are invited to attend.  First Presbyterian Church is at 2775 Lincoln Avenue in Altadena.
