Un relat trepidant de la lluita pels drets dels treballadors. El febrer de 1919 Barcelona quedava paralitzada per una vaga històrica: els treballadors de la Barcelona Traction Light and Power -coneguda com La Canadenca- es manifestaven en contra de la retallada de sous i provocaven una apagada que va deixar sense electricitat ni transport a la ciutat. La magnitud de la protesta, en la que fins i tot va haver-hi un assassinat, inspirava veritable terror a la burgesia, que veia en les apagades la insurrecció que s'havia viscut a Petrograd, o la por de la Setmana Tràgica de 1909. Amb quatre mil obrers empresonats al castell de Montjuïc, la decisió d'acomiadar la majoria dels treballadors barcelonins amb la qual la patronal buscava una victòria absoluta va obligar a la intervenció immediata del Govern, temorós de la possible extensió del conflicte, i va posar punt final a la vaga. Entre les mesures acordades, figurava l'acceptació de la jornada màxima de vuit hores, amb la qual cosa Espanya esdevenia el primer Estat que assolia per llei aquest dret.
