1969 год. Расцвет движения хиппи. Фред и Хесус решили уехать от цивилизации и ФБР в Центральную Америку, где и зажили коммуной вдали от мировых проблем. 20 лет спустя они находят в дремучих джунглях мертвого агента ЦРУ с планами военного вторжения в Штаты. Считая своим долгом остановить беду, Фред и Хесус возвращаются в Нью-Йорк - но времена переменились, да еще как! Их подружки Петра и Сэмми забыли о всеобщей любви, став жадными до денег материалистками. Для Фреда и Хесуса это было грубым пробуждением, но, возможно, они все-таки смогут спасти мир…

The title of this Canadian documentary may have some relation to Canadian Marshall McLuhan's theories. It combines interview with famous U.S. militants of the '60s, such as Jerry Rubin and Abbie Hoffman, with reenactments of their Chicago trials (i.e., the "Chicago Eight," etc.). Other figures of cultural interest from the time, including Alan Ginsberg and Buckminster Fuller, are interviewed or featured. The filmmaker indicates his belief that powerful forces in the U.S. government worked together to suppress American radicals. This view, widely disbelieved at the time, has since been confirmed.
