FRONTLINE and ProPublica reveal how the stories of Charles Taylor (the American-educated war criminal notorious for his use of child soldiers) and the tire company Firestone (Liberia's largest single employer) intersected during the brutal Liberian civil war. This film raises provocative questions about corporate responsibility, accountability, and the ethical ramifications of doing business in conflict zones
