Gryr i Norden (Dawn in the North) [1] is a Norwegian film from 1939 that was directed by Olav Dalgard. [2] Gryr i Norden is the last film in the "worker trilogy." The other two films are Det drønner gjennom dalen (1938) and Lenkene brytes (1938). [3] [4]
The film is about the first major women's strike in Norway, the match workers' strike in Kristiania (now Oslo) in 1889. On the morning of October 23, 1889, the match workers at the Bryn and Grønvold match factories in the city went on strike.
