Synopsis: Franck has been raised by his working-class parents to be upwardly mobile. His father and mother are extremely proud of his academic prowness and success. When Franck graduates from college and returns home, he goes to work in the Human Resources Department at the metalwork plant that has employed all of his family for years. Before long, Franck's class-consciousness causes him to realize that managment is abusing its power and exploitating the workers. Unable to ignore these injustices, Franck begins to act as a liason between the workers, union and management in an attempt to win a shorter workweek and fairer working conditions.
