Based on the first major Swedish strike in Sundsvall 1879. The sawmill worker Arvid is on the meeting with his fellow workers and the sawmill magnates. Greta is waiting for him at home, organizing flyers and sewing a red banner. A story about what is worth sacrificing for the great cause, about the political human being.
