Chris Boyce et Daulton Lee ont 23 ans en 1974, dans une Amérique que le scandale du Watergate traumatise. Amis d'enfance, ils ont choisi des voies totalement opposées : Lee est devenu un petit dealer, tandis que Chris, après avoir renoncé à la prêtrise, se consacre au dressage de son faucon. Grâce à son père, il est embauché dans une importante compagnie d'électronique, la TRW. Rapidement promu, il occupe un poste de confiance, recevant les messages codés d'un satellite espion pour le compte de la CIA. C'est ainsi qu'il prend connaissance des agissements peu glorieux de son pays. Citoyen modèle, il ne comprend pas que la CIA se permette de manipuler impunément tous les gouvernements du monde, y compris ceux de ses alliés (soutien au putschiste Augusto Pinochet au Chili, déstabilisation du gouvernement travailliste en Australie, .

The film emulates the 1968 trip made by Yvon Chouinard and Doug Tompkins to Patagonia, but rather than by land, Jeff Johnson travels by sea from Mexico and south along the west coast of Chile. The film opens with original home movie footage as taken by Chouinard and Tompkins, and then continues with Johnson's own footage, in which he includes surfing, sailing and climbing as the film follows Johnson signing on with a small boat heading for Chile, his being delayed for several weeks on Easter Island, his meeting travel partner Makohe, and in his reaching Patagonia, Johnson meeting with Chouinard and Tompkins. The film concludes with his attempt to climb Cerro Corcovado (the Corcovado volcano), an attempt that was halted 200 feet from the summit out of concerns for safety.

According to Sicko, almost fifty million Americans are uninsured while the remainder, who are covered, are often victims of insurance company fraud and red tape. Furthermore, Sicko points out that the U.S. health care system is ranked 37 out of 191 by the World Health Organization with certain health measures, such as infant mortality and life expectancy, equal to countries with much less economic wealth. Interviews are conducted with people who thought they had adequate coverage but were denied care. Former employees of insurance companies describe cost-cutting initiatives that give bonuses to insurance company physicians and others to find reasons for the company to avoid meeting the cost of medically necessary treatments for policy holders, and thus increase company profitability.
