This film is part of a DVD set entitled "Treasures III"--a set of four DVDs all about social issues and reform. The fourth disk (where you'll find this one) is about ethnic issues in particular.
Interestingly, according to the audio commentary, this film was sponsored by an anti-union organization. The film begins with a young man leaving his home in Europe to come to America. Soon you see actual footage of the Ellis Island facility. Oddly, this guy manages to move on to meet his brother in Gary, Indiana--a frightening saga that is skipped in the film. Instead, if focuses more on what the man does once he arrives. He is shown to the YMCA for lodging as well as going to get a job--pretty mundane stuff. Then, in some even more mundane shots, the new guy is being shown safety procedures. This really seems like a way to promote good will, educate and convince the public that industry is swell.
Then, the emigrant is transferred to the plant at Lorain (Ohio?). He seems to be moving up in the company. Once again, in a dry and educational manner, safety equipment in the factory is emphasized. Any pretense at sticking with the fictional story is forgotten until towards the end of the movie. All this really is apparently an attempt to recruit new workers as well as dispel notions that the factory work was dangerous--not to tell a story. And I should say, that compared to only 20 or so years earlier, the factories had improved dramatically (arms and legs were being torn off at much lower rates thanks to some safety innovations).
Overall, this is an important historical document even though it is very skewed and idealistic. But, it's also dry as dust--so be forewarned.
