This short documentary encapsulates the experiences of a tourist who spends eight hours in London. A humorous narrator guides the audience through London streets, while a dynamic music emphasizes the rhythm of a city full of contrasts and cultural diversity. From the train station we pass by shopping arcades, store windows, Piccadilly Circus, flea markets, cool teenagers and " well-behaved" citizens, the camera passes restaurants, cinemas, the Parliament, Buckingham Palace and captures the evening atmosphere with the pubs and illuminated streets.
