Summary:
Combining documentary form with staged reenactments, this film leads the viewer on an emotional tour of the U.S. and its freedom-based ideologies (just prior to World War II), as well as an unflinching look at the forces threatening to undermine its strengths from within: greedy capitalists, professional strikebreakers, and the Ku Klux Klan.
