Effects are shown in small vignettes of ordinary life. The machine shop now displays a sign with the day’s production quota. Children being packed to go away to a State School. Father rebels and is seized by military guards. The church is closed for worship, and now houses a Soviet museum. Father stands trial before a military court for rebelling against the Communist State. Family testifies against him. He is sentenced to be shot. He gives impassioned speech about freedom.
