- Through a real estate purchase Daniel Gaynor acquires all rights in the waterway leading from Moose River to the mill. The original owner has never made use of his rights, but Gaynor, whose one thought is to get power, refuses to allow logs to be floated down the river running through his property. The men resent this injustice, and there is a fight between Gaynor and Bill Jackson, Bill representing the lumbermen. The ruthless way in which Gaynor deals with the men loses for him the sympathy of his one friend, Mary Alden, a widowed school teacher, with whom he is in love. The loggers are forced to sell their output to Gaynor, getting a poorer price for it than ever before. He in turn sells it to the ship company in the city at a lower figure than they have ever paid. Gaynor has had to get the assistance of the sheriff and deputies to protect his interests, and he has won the victory only after many brutal fights. Delighted with Gaynor's executive ability, the firm offers him the position of general manager, at a large salary, and he goes to the city. Mary Alden refuses to accompany him as his wife, for she does not believe that happiness can be built on a foundation of injustice. At the shipyards Gaynor continues in the high-handed way he has begun. He cuts wages, speeds up the work of the men to a cruel degree, and in other ways makes himself a tyrant. So successful is he that in ten years' time he is president of the company. Bessie Alden, Mary's daughter, comes to the city to seek her fortune. She meets Dick Grant, who is employed in the office of the ship building firm, and they are instantly attracted to each other. They are married, and Dick goes to Gaynor and asks for a raise in salary. It is refused. Dick's old grandmother falls ill, and he finds his added responsibilities more than he can manage. A child is born, and Dick is at his wit's end to provide comforts for the child and Bessie. About this time Gaynor's health fails and he is obliged to go to the woods to recuperate. This facilitates the carrying out of the plan that has tempted Dick, and he takes a certain sum out of the cash box each week, telling Bessie that Gaynor has increased his salary. Returning to his old home, Gaynor finds himself thoroughly hated. He is beaten and thrown into the river, but is rescued by Mary. He begins to realize that his power has not brought him the real things in life. Dick's theft is discovered by his superior in the office, and reported to Gaynor on his return. He goes to Dick's house, telling the detective to follow later. Bessie surprises him by thanking him profusely for her husband's raise, and telling all it has done for them. The baby climbs up into his arms and pats his face. Bessie tells him the child has been named for him. It is the first affection that has been shown Gaynor for many long years, and it overwhelms him. When the detective comes, he tells him there has been a mistake, and that there has been no theft. Then, having established the happiness of Dick and Bessie, he goes to Mary Alden and finds happiness for himself.

- A confessional portrait of the highs and lows of open relationships A war between the body and mind wages on in this visual narrative of a couple's attempt to navigate their polyamorous relationship. You Make Me Weak At The Knees explores an often overlooked and undiscussed reality for couples who have multiple intimate relationships at once-and the sense of triumph, freedom, insecurity and pain that goes with it. "Should you change your innate behaviour to please someone else?" Conducted over a run-down payphone in a desolate east London industrial site, a couple's heated conversation breathes life and hidden understanding into the project's assorted imagery. "Should you change your innate behaviour to please someone else," says London-based filmmaker Joseph Wilson in this exploration of sexual instinct versus romantic duty, "or should the other person suffer at the expense of the relationship?" Wilson's imaginative project combines VHS film, strobe-lit dance choreography and a gripping soundtrack to portray the complications around open relationships. "Although polyamorous relationships work for some, in my experience, there always tends to be someone that gets hurt," says the director, whose protagonist is seduced, blinded and divided from his partner by a trio of silent dancers. "My thoughts about it are in constant flux," he continues. "I think all relationships depend on the people involved and where you are in life-and that's changing all the time."
