Haymarket: The Bomb, the Anarchists, the Labor Struggle (2021)
The Chicago Haymarket tragedy, where a bomb thrown into the ranks of Police was followed by an eruption of panic and violence resulting in a trial and execution of presumably innocent workers' rights activists, is examined in this feature documentary film. Expert historians and professors present the history of the bomb, the anarchist movement of the 19th century, and the labor struggle of working people fighting for a shorter work day during the industrial might of America's Gilded Age.

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
