Year 1919. Young country girl Anna arrives in Prague to serve in a rich family of builder Rubeš. She encounters Toník, a foundry worker in the Kolben-Daněk Machinery Works and active member of the social democratic party. He, his friends and her mate Máňa teach Anna how to deal with her employer and about the class struggle. A year passes. There is a deep split in the social democracy. The left wing leans towards the Russian communist model. The right wing is willing to compromise and supports bourgeois politicians. So by being blackmailed MP Jandák is driven to betrayal. At a time of great political struggles Anna loses her work for a petty reason. Toník supports her and asks her to marry him. Anna then lives with him in temporary buildings area.

There's nothing to be done, but such movies are truly nothing but propagandistic evil. A film about how a worker triumphs, or is oppressed, which means he must take power into his own hands to ultimately prevail and suppress the evil represented by the upper class. Poorly directed, terribly acted, and furthermore so political that it hurts.
