Film Synopsis: A propaganda film, it depicts the Bolsheviks' rise to power in 1917. The plot covers the period from about 1913 to 1917. Political figures of the time are not shown; the emphasis is on the struggle of ordinary people for their rights and for peace against the power of capital and the autocracy. A Russian peasant unwittingly becomes a scab, putting him at odds with a relative leading the strike.
