Johnny Kovak, the son of Hungarian immigrants, is a manual worker who is invited to work for the truckers' union and makes a career as a union leader. He gets involved with organized crime. Loosely based on Jimmy Hoffa's life.
It departs from the real Jimmy Hoffa's life presumably, among other possible causes, because the screenwriter is Hungarian and wanted to depict this ethnicity. But the movie is an efficient and realistic dramatization of the workers' struggle, and all it entailed.
