""This film is the story of the birth of a giant -- Jean Jaurès. On Aug. 16, 1892 , in Carmaux, 2,000 miners rebelled: their socialist mayor, Calvignac, has been dismissed by the owner of 'La Compagnie des Mines,' the marquis of Solages. At 34 years of age, Jaurès is a prominent young citizen and one of the most promising moderate republicans. ... In the few weeks of this strike, he chooses his destiny by siding with the oppressed ones. He will become the representative of the poorest and the symbol of republican and international socialism"--http://www.frenchfilm.vcu.edu."
