The Song of the Canary is a 1978 American occupational health documentary film directed by Josh Hanig and David Davis. The film documents the Occidental Petroleum plant in Manteca, California and the scandal in which employees became sterile after being exposed to the pesticide DBCP.[1][2] It also features interviews with workers over the use of guinea pigs, and health and safety regulations.[3] The soundtrack, composed by Doug McKechnie, features the song "Like It Is" by Yusef Lateef.[4]
