Gervaise Macquart, a young lame laundress, is left by her lover Auguste Lantier with two boys. She manages to make it, and a few years later she marries Coupeau, a roofer. After working very hard a few more years, she succeeds in buying her own laundry (her dream). But Coupeau starts to drink after having fallen from a roof, and Lantier shows up. A faithful adaptation of Emile Zola's novel "L'Assomoir", depicting the fatal degeneration of a family of workers, mainly because of alcohol.
