Bilbo Baggins is a young man from the lower aristocracy of southern England. He lives in the Shire with his father Bungo Baggins, surrounded by greenery and peace, dedicating his life to teaching and academia. One day, his life changes when he must move with his father to the northern city of Milton, the industrial heartland of England. It is there that he meets Thorin Oakenshield, the righteous and heartless owner of one of the town's cotton factory.
Soon his ideas of social justice, class and privilege are called into play when a workers' strike breaks out against the industrial bosses, and Bilbo and his people are caught up in it.
