Pink ribbons are everywhere: T-shirts, hats, yogurt cups, KFC buckets, car ads, NFL stadiums - the list goes on and on. They make people feel good, as if engaged in a successful battle against breast cancer. But who is really benefitting? More and more women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. Wouldn't it be something if some of the very companies that profit from their pink marketing campaigns have actually contributed to the epidemic by selling known carcinogens?

Originally released in 2011.
Based on the book Pink Ribbons, Inc. : breast cancer and the politics of philanthropy by Samantha King.
Featuring: Samantha King, Barbara Brenner, Barbara Ehrenreich, Nancy Brinker, Dr. Susan Love, Dr. Olufunmilayo Olopade.
