Synopsis:
This very moment is not true, one could think. Thirty years after American GIs and Vietnamese Vietcong battled against and killed each other, they fight together as allies. Today they share one enemy: U.S. chemical giant Monsanto, producer of the defoliant agent orange. They fight in front of the second court of appeal in Manhattan, New York. They have one aim in common: they demand compensation because of remote damages at themselves and their children. Agent Orange has been sprayed over the Vietnamese Dschungel. The judges at the second court of appeal have to decide whether compensations have to be paid. The main question at hand is, what did Monsanto know about the danger of its product Agent Orange? Critics claim that Monsanto did know about the toxicity of their product very early. But the company restrained the truth, critics say. This film gives a portrait of Monsanto's criminal activities. Also showing Monsanto's latest business activities, this U.S. giant today is the world biggest producer of genetically modified seed. And as the film shows how Monsanto's criminal biography continues in that field as well.
