This documentary offers a radical, grassroots perspective on early 20th-century Swedish labor conflicts. It successfully shifts the historical lens away from state-centric narratives toward the actions of the working class. However, the film's demographic diversity is limited, focusing mainly on male figures and a specific Swedish context. Its strength lies in its ideological depth, providing a powerful critique of capitalist hierarchies.

Official Synopsis
Anton Nilson is known as one of the Amalthea men, three young socialists who in 1908, in one of the labor conflicts that crippled Malmö, carried out a bomb attack against the ship Amalthea, home to the English "willing to work" that the employers had imported to break the struggle of the striking workers.
