SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- From award-winning filmmaker Tim Delmastro comes a new film about the excessive and sometimes absurd laws governing daily life in America today.

Why is raw milk illegal to buy or sell, but not to consume? How are some drugs classified as safe by the FDA without any independent testing? And why is the government so eager to bail out some failing companies?

Recently featured on Fox Business, Freedom From Choice is a feature length documentary film that explores the endless layers of backroom dealing that is the US lobbying industry. Through a series of thought provoking interviews, experts from numerous industries explain in simple terms how the political 'revolving door' creates unfair regulations which affect their industry. Supplemented by recent news clips and archival footage, the experts paint a startling picture of the overregulation of modern American life.

Freedom From Choice features several industry leaders in many important aspects of our lives, including farmer and best-selling author Joel Salatin (Food Inc.), renowned money manager Peter Schiff, trend forecaster Gerald Celente, food and drug attorney Jonathan Emord and Allen St. Pierre, Executive Director of NORML.

A humorous and occasionally troubling look at the laws we live by, Freedom From Choice is a film not about the choices we make, but rather the choices that are being made for us.

The film is being distributed through London based Sideways Film, and can be viewed through the official website: www.freedomfromchoicefilm.com.
