1919. Stefan (Marshall Williams) and his father Mike (Gregg Henry) fled Ukraine for the New World, where they struggle to earn enough to re-unite the family. Stefan is instantly smitten with the Jewish suffragette neighbor, Rebecca (Laura Wiggins) - but Rebecca's brother Moishe (Tristan Carlucci) and Mike oppose the would-be Romeo and Juliet. Returned soldiers, angry at the lack of jobs after the war, violently threaten the city's immigrants, including Emma (Lisa Bell), the refugee from racist violence in Oklahoma. When a movement develops for workers to leave their jobs in protest, AJ Anderson (Paul Essiembre), a wealthy lawyer, pits all against each other in a dramatic and inspirational final stand.
