520 _a"Tehtaantyttö : 3-näytöksinen näytelmä" by Jalmari Järviö is a three-act play written in the early 20th century. It centers on Siiri, a keen-minded torppari’s daughter steered toward factory work, whose life becomes entangled with class hierarchy, a concealed parentage, and a tender bond with Torsten, the estate owner’s son. The drama weighs poverty against aspiration, explores working-class education and morality, and pits youthful ideals against parental authority and social convention. The opening of the play shows Siiri’s sickly mother Henna and stern stepfather Antti debating whether the teenage girl should go to the factory, while Henna dreads repeating her own hardships; a chance encounter in the farm’s shed leaves Siiri holding Torsten’s ring, and Henna’s soliloquy hints that Siiri’s true father is a German engineer. The next act shifts to Vihantila, where Torsten clashes with his father Hagen over his support for the workers’ association and his love for Siiri; despite threats of disinheritance and a heart episode, Torsten vows to follow his heart and help launch an evening school. At the start of the third act, Siiri visits her uncle Levola, plans a better path for cousin Selma, then learns Henna has died, reconciling with Antti as he delivers Henna’s last packet; Torsten arrives in mourning for his own father, and the two young people meet again in shared grief.
