The Working Class Goes to Heaven

A workplace accident sets off a chain reaction, propelling a factory worker into a world of politics and revolution.

In a world where hard work is rewarded, Lulù's dedication earns him favor among bosses, but resentment from his colleagues. When unions stage protests against the masters, Lulù initially disagrees, but a freak accident involving a severed finger changes his perspective. He joins the strike, only to be fired and abandoned by his lover and former colleagues. However, the unions' efforts ultimately lead to a new law that reinstates Lulù, but his newfound success takes a toll on his mental well-being.
