An idiosyncratic portrait of Granada that avoids the typical motifs of the city symphony: crowds, industrial labor, motorized traffic, et cetera. The film opens with shots of the Alhambra, a moving camera scanning its walls, sculptural reliefs, and its lush gardens with trees, flowers, water works, and fountains. The film uses more and more longer shots, giving us a better view on the environment with shots of shop windows, children, blacksmiths, a loom, a woman doing needlework, and a market—through a bird cage, we can see some pedestrians.
