The connections between private corporations making a killing in Iraq and the decision makers.

This brand new documentary by Robert Greenwald takes you inside the lives of soldiers, truck drivers, widows and children who have been changed forever as a result of profiteering in the reconstruction of Iraq. IRAQ FOR SALE uncovers the connections between private corporations making a killing in Iraq and the decision makers who allow them to do so.

"Both a trenchant indictment of war profiteering in Iraq and a memorial for those not included in the military's death toll, IRAQ FOR SALE is a work of intense disillusionment; the wounds are fresh and the testimony of civilian contractors and their bereaved family members is appropriately raw."
