What Would Jesus Buy? The Film

What Would Jesus Buy? is a satirical and cynical take on consumer culture, pegged to America's most sacred spending season - Christmas. The documentary was produced by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Morgan Spurlock and directed by Sundance award-winner Rob VanAlkemade. Bill Talen (aka Reverend Billy) is an anticorporate activist who performs with his Church of Stop Shopping Gospel Choir, taking his guerilla-style tactics to the Starbucks, Walmarts, and Disneylands of America. His message focuses on issues of materialism, the alleged over-consumption in American culture, globalization, and the business practices of large corporations.

Reverend Billy and his choir will bring their musical performance to Iowa State on Wednesday, September 17 at 8:00 p.m. in the Memorial Union Great Hall.
