AB - <p>"<em>Salt of the Earth</em> is based on a 1950 strike by zinc miners in Silver City, New Mexico. Against a backdrop of social injustice, a Mexican-American miner and his wife, Ramon and Esperanza Quintero, find their roles reversed: an injunction against the male strikers moves the women to take over the picket line, leaving the men to domestic duties. The women evolve from men's subordinates to their allies and equals.<br><br>
