Eric Schlosser's nonfiction best-selling book was the inspiration for this film directed by Richard Linklater and featuring several well-known actors. The movie, which is fictional, centers around a vast burger chain called Mickey's. One thread of the story is about a young woman who works in a Mickey's going through a crisis of conscience. Another thread involves illegal immigrants who take jobs in a meat-processing plant, and there are stomach-churning scenes showing how cattle are turned into beef patties.
