Completing her course as a trained nurse, Jane visits her old home. Amid the settlement's corroding influence, her brother becomes a thief. Jane's sister Annie falls a prey to the blandishments of a tempter from the city. Fired with indignation against the injustice of affairs, Jane devotes herself to the double mission of avenging and of righting the wrongs of which her family and the community in general have been subjected. Her father is seriously hurt in an accident at work, and his pay is stopped. Jane hastens to the city, determined to make an effort to awaken William Jameson, the millionaire owner of the oil field, to a realization of the wrongs imposed upon the workers. She arrives at a time when the millionaire's son John Jameson, who glimpsed the light of uplift, is vainly pleading with his father to listen to his plans for the betterment of the workers' conditions. Jane is compelled to force her way into the Jameson mansion during the progress of a bal masque given in aid of the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. She accosts William Jameson in his study, and wild with anger and further maddened by the millionaire's gibes, she tries to kill him and is arrested by detectives. Although she and young Jameson have not met, the latter is instrumental in obtaining her release. Jane goes back to the workers and a secret strike is formed, Jane being the ring-leader. They determine to fire the wells to teach Jameson a lesson. It is at this time that John Jameson comes to the oil wells to investigate conditions. His identity is not known by anyone except the superintendent. Morgan, the ringleader of the workers, is in love with Jane, and on the eve of the firing of the wells he learns of Jameson's identity by breaking into his cottage. The same evening, to save the property, young Jameson goes to Jane, confesses his identity, and pleads with her to help him save the property. Jane is in a quandary. She has fallen in love with the man, whom she believed to be a workman, and he with her. Finally, when she goes to the meeting place of the strikers and pleads with them to hold off, Morgan, who has just broken into Jameson's hut, rushes in, and accuses her of being a traitor. There is a fight. They trample over Jane and rush to the wells. Jane, realizing that they will turn to her unsuspecting lover and try to kill him, drags herself to him and just in time throws herself in front of him as the strikers rush to kill him. However, John Jameson bares himself to the strikers, asks them to listen to him, and proves to them that he is there on their behalf. He then goes to his father and forces him to give in to the strikers, and all ends happily.
- Filmed at the Philadelphia Museum and Locks Gallery, The Imaginary Solutions of Thomas Chimes presents a conversation with the artist as he reminisces about his career, influences and artistic intuitions. Director of the museum, Anne d'Harnoncourt, joins Chimes to revisit the galleries of Thomas Eakins, Duchamp and Van Gogh, all of whom were deeply influential throughout his artistic journey. Just as many other American artists, Chimes spent time in Paris and discovered writers such as Antonin Artaud, James Joyce and most notably Alfred Jarry, whose writings on pataphysics dominated Chimes' work for two decades. Chimes's portraits of Jarry and his intellectual peers are the core of his idiosyncratic work as an artist. Michael Taylor, curator of Chimes' retrospective exhibition at the Philadelphia Museum, questions him on his progress from his beginnings to his present work.

- If you want to see a film about a family of vulnerable, yet touching, Irish immigrants, and the trials they face in the whirl-wind of New York, or if you are seeking out a movie about orphan Cheetahs that are Buddhist, and play soccer, or a movie so bold, so excruciatingly sexy, and so distractingly beautiful that it will move you in ways you never thought possible, then this film is the apotheosis of your gluttonous desire. The colorful, and starving Lehigh Valley Stevenson, author of horror novellas, turns to writing love letters for passers-bye, and becomes a muse for the citizens of Philadelphia. The Detector, a schizophrenic, and sweet man of vast nuance, sentimentality and corduroy apparel, arms himself with only a defective metal detector, as he embarks on an odyssey, and searches for something that lies at the heart of it all. Wily Russians run amok on an American submarine, and a second-string amateur hockey player fulfills his community service hours in front of a live audience of children, and through his simple nature, teaches us that drunks are people too. A mighty, yet aged Zeus readies the gorgeous Bacchus to play God with the lives of mankind. And the sad and lonely tale of the sweet Audrey, a wandering spirit, who looks for meaning in a marriage that has somehow become vacuous, stale, and potentially dangerous. These are but half the threads that are masterfully woven together by the brilliant and handsome filmmakers, into the rich and expensive tapestry that is Identity Burglars. A comedy that makes the first strides in Nu-form, the completely ad-libbed Identity Burglars ushers in a new precedence for filmmaking. Join the gigantic cast as their stories explore life, and exalt just how funny it can be.
