Kopple's account of the Hormel labor strike, which devastated the small company town of Austin, Minnesota in the 1980s, makes a compelling documentary of big business versus worker demands. A mixture of interviews with major participants and location footage of the strikers and their families focuses also on the dispute between the local meatpackers and their parent union's lack of support and on the ultimately futile efforts of the union organizers.
