In late 19th-century Russia, a strike erupts in a factory region after a worker's tragic suicide, sparked by false accusations of theft. The workers initially unite, developing their demands collectively, but as the strike wears on and management refuses to budge, hunger, domestic strife, and civic unrest mount. As tensions escalate, provocateurs secretly funded by the police, fire department, and lumpenproletariat create chaos, while spies and the military ultimately aim to crush the strike.
