Through the montage of documentary and associative motifs in image and sound, František Vláčil expresses the atmosphere and impressions of the city of Karlovy Vary. The film presents Karlovy Vary not only as a famous spa with a long tradition, but also as an industrial and cultural center. In addition to promenades, it also shows workers in industries such as glass, porcelain and liqueur. The documentary also includes footage from the 18th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, local horse races and the golf course.
