This fascinating documentary about a pair of North London activists who take on international powerhouse McDonalds. The film follows environmental campaigners Helen Steel and Dave Morris as they‘re dragged to court by the fast food chain for distributing a pamphlet that dared to challenge McDonalds PR mantra. The resulting trial, the longest in English legal history, not only cost the company an estimated £10 million, but it also turned Steel and Morris into public heroes.
