Lawrence, 1912

Synopsis:

A few months before the Titanic sank, the great Bread and Roses strike attracted as much worldwide attention. When the authorities arrest the Italian strike leaders on trumped-up murder charges, the charismatic organizer Elizabeth Gurley Flynn steps in, leading a rag-tag band of immigrant women against the second highest paid CEO in the country after J.P. Morgan.
