Description: Frontline on PBS offers two starkly contrasting images: one of empty storefronts in Circleville, Ohio; the other, a sea of high rises in the South China boomtown of Shenzhen. The connection between American job losses and soaring Chinese exports? Wal-Mart. For Wal-Mart, China has become the cheapest, most reliable production platform in the world, the source of up to $25 billion in annual imports that help the company deliver everyday low prices.

One hour. In English.

Review(s): "Originally created to be part of the Frontline series, 'Is Wal-Mart Good for America?' analyzes how the mammoth corporate entity changes the economic reality of any city it enters, and shows how its policies and actions have altered not just American life, but life throughout the world." - Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
