- Summary:
- Skeptical of her parents' decision to "re-side" their home with vinyl siding (polyvinyl chloride or PVC), filmmaker Judith Helfand and co-director Daniel B. Gold decide to travel to America's vinyl manufacturing capital and beyond in search of the truth about polyvinyl chloride. They uncover PVC's effects on human health and the environment, and, ultimately, they find an alternative material.
