Synopsis

"BIG BOYS GONE BANANAS!" documents the escalating conflict between Dole Food Company and Swedish filmmaker Fredrik Gertten. The film follows Dole's attempts to block Gertten’s earlier documentary, "BANANAS!", which detailed a lawsuit by Nicaraguan workers against the company. After being accepted to the 2009 Los Angeles Film Festival, "BANANAS!" was pulled from the lineup, followed by a damaging article and legal action from Dole's lawyers. Gertten’s film captures this story of corporate pressure, media control, and legal battles, revealing the challenges documentary filmmakers face and raising concerns about corporate power impacting free speech.
