Description
In the year 1888, Florence finds herself toiling away as a match girl in a grimy factory, where the working conditions are perilous and often life-threatening. Each day exposes her to the harsh realities of labor, as she navigates the suffocating environment filled with toxic substances. As she struggles to make ends meet, Florence becomes acutely aware of the injustices faced by her fellow workers and the broader implications of their exploitation.
Amid whispers of an impending strike, Florence's world begins to shift. The idea of camaraderie and collective action ignites a spark of hope within her, urging her to consider the possibility of fighting for change. As the tension builds and the stakes rise, she must confront her fears and make choices that could reshape her future and the lives of those around her, setting the stage for a fierce battle against the oppressive forces governing her life.
