"New York 1995. Lowell Bergman, responsabile del popolare programma giornalistico 60 Minutes della CBS, convince lo scienziato Jeffrey Wigand, licenziato dalla Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp., a rivelare che i suoi datori di lavoro aggiungono additivi chimici alle sigarette per rafforzare l'assuefazione al fumo.
