Plot

Mark Thomas, a legendarily seditious comedian and human rights activist, is a recovering Coca-Cola addict, who decides to trek around the globe investigating the stories and people Coca-Cola's iconic advertising campaigns don't mention: child laborers in sugar cane fields of El Salvador; Indian workers exposed to toxic chemicals; Colombian labor union leaders in Coke bottling plants falsely accused of terrorism and jailed alongside the paramilitaries who want to kill them. At once hilarious and disturbing, Thomas builds a very detailed and damning case against the world's most ubiquitous drink.
