The narrative centers on a pivotal trial that arose from a pamphlet criticizing McDonald's, leading to the longest legal battle in British history. The story follows the "McLibel Two," two activists who bravely defended themselves against a powerful corporation's libel claims. As they faced off against elite lawyers, the trial raised significant questions about the fast-food giant's practices, including exploitation and environmental impact. Ultimately, the verdict, perceived as a moral victory for the activists, highlighted the enduring struggle against corporate power.
