Joe Hill (Movie) is a 1971 biopic of the Swedish-American labor activist. It was written, directed and edited by Bo Widerberg. It stars Thommy Berggren, Ania Schmidt, Kelvin Malave, Evert Anderson, Cathy Smith and Hasse Persson. The movie won the Jury Prize at the 1971 Cannes Film Festival.

In 1902, Joel Emmanuel Hägglund and his brother, Paul, left Sweden and entered the United States. For this new life, Joel became Joseph Hillström – and, eventually, Joe Hill. The film details Joe’s move west, where he became one of the most colorful and important organizers in the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), and ends with his trial for murder and subsequent execution.
