О фильме

In 1970, United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) president W.A. (Tony) Boyle was under indictment for union funds misuse and suspected of murdering outspoken union reform advocate Jock Yablonski and his family in 1969. The film intercuts Boyle’s speech at a Big Stone Gap, Virginia rally with mining scenes and interviews with miners from the UMWA.
