At the beginning of the century there was an anarcho-syndicalist group led by Ricardo Flores Magón, a group that expressed its ideals through the newspaper "Regeneration". One night, the miserable clandestine printing house where Flores Magón himself reviews the final edition of the newspaper, is assaulted by the police and he is arrested while one of his disciples, known as The Apostle, manages to flee with the mission of reaching the mining city of Real del Monte and announce the outbreak of the Revolution. The Apostle is imprisoned for riot, but he manages to leave thanks to the help of some imprisoned miners, so he decides to join them and takes part in the rescue of some of them who were trapped in a mine owned by an American who opposes all action in favor of the injured. Then the miners decide to take the mine and the Apostle, foreseeing a strong repression by the army, goes in search of help. The encounter occurs, but finally the miners won.
