Independent Lens will be showing a four-hour documentary entitled "The Calling" about seven young people who are pursuing professions in religious service. There will be a special livestream screening on the Independent Lens Facebook page on December 9, 2010.
There is also a companion website called What's Your Calling? that invites viewers to participate in an online discussion about what they feel called to do.

People, not corporations
I came across the book Life Inc. while browsing on the 800 CEO Read Blog (which is a great blog for business books if you are a business librarian or thinking about specializing in business reference) and based on the movie, I think that this book might be the break-out book for business for this summer.
The movie is only 9 minutes and it is also available on the book's website for download.
Life Inc. may be the next step after The Corporation (you can watch the whole thing on YouTube) which if you haven't seen it, you should take the time to watch it.
Update: a colleague of mine pointed out that Life Inc also makes similar points to the Story of Stuff, her favorite YouTube Video:
