The Yes Men Fix the World trailer
ONE NIGHT ONLY!!!
November 5, 2009
7:00 pm to 9:00 pm
Abington Art Center is screening “The Yes Men Fix the World” as part of the current video and photography exhibition “Endurance: Daring Feats of Risk, Survival and Perseverance” on view at AAC through November 29.
“The Yes Men Fix the World” is a screwball true story about two gonzo political activists who, posing as top executives of giant corporations, lie their way into business conferences and parody their corporate targets in ever more extreme ways – to wake up their audiences to the danger of letting greed run our world.
Film will be shown one night only at the Hiway Theatre, 212 Old York Road, Jenkintown, PA 19046. Regular ticket rates apply and AAC members will also get the Hiway member rate of $5.
