Thoroughly enraged, Ruby decides to take matters into her own hands, and, with the help of a union organiser named Warren Jakopovich (Skarsgard), Ruby wages her own war on the Eastover Mining Company. Based on a true story (chronicled in the documentary HARLAN COUNTRY USA), HARLAN COUNTRY WAR is a fascinating and often heartbreaking look at the lives of these coal miners that is galvanised by Hunter's strong performance as Ruby, making it at once a rousing drama and brutal look at labour practices in the US.
