In the summer of 2014, Sophie notices her son Garret vomiting in his sleep, followed by a spreading rash. Although a doctor reassures them, the symptoms remain mysterious, and Sophie grows convinced the cause could be genetic modification linked. Her fear sets the stage for a deeper quest.

Sophie visits the university lab where her mother Kristin works as a secretary and meets scientist Serge Negani. She explains her concerns about Garret's illness and possible GMO connections. Serge hints at controversial research that could hold answers.

Peter Landell overhears Sophie's worries and claims to have files that hold the answers. He presents himself as a university scientist and hints at important documents. The offer sets up a potential path to the truth about the GMO project.

Sophie leaves Garret with Eddie and sneaks into the university with Peter to locate the files using her mother's keys. When they can't find them, security guards reveal that Peter is actually a janitor and the files are missing. The plan collapses as the truth slips away.

Serge Negani and Jacob are researching biotech chickens and GMO reactions in rats. He discovers the chickens are dead and finds incriminating information on Jacob's computer, prints it, and boxes it for transport. The discovery exposes the potential dangers of the project.

Sophie receives a call from Serge with his discovery, but learns that Eddie works as a cop for Clonestra, the GMO company. Overwhelmed, she refuses to speak and ends the call. The revelation strains her already tense situation.

Serge drives to Sophie's house to share the information, but Eddie's two associates chase him off the interstate. The pursuit ends in a crash in which Serge is killed. The loss deepens Sophie’s resolve to uncover the truth.

News of Serge's death prompts Sophie to visit Serge's widow. She learns Serge's grandfather was a farmer in India who grew GMO corn with seeds provided by Clonestra, a chain of events that drove crop failures and farmer suicides. The revelation connects the current danger to a longer pattern of exploitation.

Sophie travels to a scrap-metal yard where Serge's car was salvaged and retrieves the printed information. With Eddie's help, she brings the data to Clonestra to expose the truth. The act marks a turning point in the struggle over the GMO project.

Sophie and Eddie present the information to Clonestra, prompting CEO Dan Conoway to resign. Kristin uploads a YouTube video explaining the reasons for labeling genetically modified foods, further fueling the public response. The corporate facade begins to crack under pressure.

Some time later, Sophie, Garret, Kristin, Eddie, and Eddie's son Tommy attend a football game. Sophie feels her heart race as she witnesses people eating typical stadium fare, highlighting her ongoing anxiety about the foods around her. The scene underscores her attempt to reclaim normalcy amid fear.

The fallout from Serge's evidence continues, contributing to the public debate over GMO labeling. The family remains wary of what they eat while continuing to navigate the new landscape shaped by exposure of the GMO industry. The film closes on a note of caution and resilience.
