CAPITALIZATION

By Mark Nowak

Directed by Christopher Johnston

 

In Capitalization, Nowak intersperses three stories to provoke discussion on
labor and ethics -- a first person account of the effect of the 1929 stock
market crash on the East Pittsburgh Westinghouse plant; Ronald Reagan's
partnership with General Electric to further the red scare in the 50's and
60's, and a grammar textbook on the proper usage of capital letters.
