by the Venezuelan dramatist RODOLFO SANTANA translated and adapted by HAL BROWN starring and 'You shouted at your workmates and called them sheep. You repeated that they would be murdered just like their comrades in Chile!'
A modern factory worker is confronted by a psychologist who wants to establish the causes of his 'unforgiveable' behaviour; when one of the machines mutilates an apprentice's hand, the worker is overcome by anger and smashes the machine with an iron bar. The inquisitorial psychologist, acting on behalf of the management, is determined to crush his dignity and self-esteem - especially because he has provoked the flickerings of revolt among fellow workers. Directed by WALTER ACOSTA. Stereo
