Film directed by Steven Soderbergh.

Erin Brockovich is a woman who, despite lack of formal education, in 1993 was instrumental in constructing a case against the $30 billion Californian company PG&E, alleging contamination of drinking water. The case was settled with the plaintiffs in 1996 for $333 million, the largest settlement ever paid in a direct-action lawsuit in U.S. history. This story was turned into a 1998 film of the same name directed by Steven Soderbergh and featuring [Julia Roberts]?.
