Bill Parker, a sailor in the English Merchant Navy faces rudeness from the ship captain and is kicked off. However, he finds solace in a Soviet logging truck, where he meets Sydney, a representative from a Western company buying timber from Soviet Russia. He supports a stokers' strike and is offered an assistant position at a woodworking plant. Russia surprises Bill with its unique aspects. The film is considered lost.
