“‘I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night…’ In the early 1900s Joe Hill emigrates to the United States with his brother, soon losing contact. Working menial jobs, he confronts widespread injustice and joins the outlawed Industrial Workers of the World. He bypasses bans on public speech by singing protest verses with the Salvation Army, urging strikes and gaining powerful enemies. When linked to a murder, he fires his lawyer and elects to defend himself at trial.
