Our Children Will Accuse Us tells the story of an initiative in Barjac, a commune located in the Gard department in southern France, that decided to introduce organic produce into the town's school cafeteria. The film depicts without concessions the environmental tragedy which threatens the young generation: the poisoning of our country sides by agricultural pesticides (76 000 tons of pesticides used each year in France) and the harm caused to public health and safety.

Le film s’inspire de l’essai Fast Food Nation d’Eric Schlosser. Il traite de la production de nourriture à grande échelle aux États-Unis et conclut que la viande et les légumes produits par ce type d’industrie sont mauvais pour la santé et pour l’environnement malgré les messages et l'imagerie présents sur les emballages des aliments. Pour cela l'enquête s'attache sur l'élevage industriel de bovins et d'ovins en interrogeant des éleveurs enchaînés à leurs emprunts dans le but de suivre le cahier des charges des grandes firmes agroalimentaires comme Cargill ou Smithfield Foods ainsi que sur le rôle prépondérant du maïs la plupart du temps maïs génétiquement modifié dans la composition de la quasi-totalité des produits vendus en supermarché aux Etats-Unis et ailleurs dans le monde. Le témoignage d'une mère devenue défenseuse des droits des consommateurs à la suite du décès accidentel de son fils, Kevin Kowalcyk, empoisonné par la bactérie Escherichia coli après avoir mangé un hamburger apporte un argument supplémentaire. Cette famille a obtenu gain de cause avec l'adoption de la Kevin's Law.

Le documentaire donne la libre parole à plusieurs acteurs de la filière, et montre une variété de points de vue qui parfois se répondent les uns les autres à des points différents du globe. Des allers et retours entre l'Europe et l'Amérique sont fréquents tout au long du film, qui se termine par une arche de Noé bâtie en Australie, au large de Perth.

Cowspiracy est un documentaire d'importance majeure. Controversé, il se penche sur l'impact de l'élevage sur l'environnement. Kip Andersen, producteur et directeur du film, révèle des informations exclusives portant sur les politiques de groupes environnementaux comme Greenpeace, Sierra Club, Surfrider Foundation, and Rainforest Action Network en plus de statistiques alarmantes sur les impacts que génèrent la consommation de viande.
