Real Value Documentary Film | Award-winning filmmaker Jesse Borkowski delivers a refreshing meditation on how business can be used to create value beyond profit; connecting motivational stories from social entrepreneurs working in agriculture, apparel, insurance, and biofuel, with the captivating science behind our perception of value from world-renowned professor of psychology and behavioral economics, Dan Ariely.

The documentary features interviews with Dan Ariely, professor of psychology and behavioral economics at Duke University, and the author of Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, The Honest Truth About Dishonesty, and the Executive Producer of the documentary Dishonesty: The Truth About Lies; Lyle Estill, co-founder of Piedmont Biofuels and the author of Small Stories: Big Changes, Industrial Evolution, and Small is Possible; Eric Henry the president of TS Designs and the recipient of the North Carolina Sustainability Champion Award; Kevin Trapani, the president and chief executive officer of The Redwoods Group, an insurance provider renowned as a leader in corporate social responsibility and named one of the best companies in the world in terms of overall impact by B Lab; and Carol Koury who is the founder and president of Sow True Seed.
