In this Peruvian look at the beginning of the 20th century in Lima, the life of a fictitious leftist labor organizer Vicente Orozco (Humberto Cavero) is traced back to 1900 to illustrate the conditions that led to his radicalization. This background and Vicente's efforts to unionize his fellow workers are thoroughly explored in the 140-minute running time.
