Synopsis

This is the subject of ongoing discovery of the beauty of the world, that man makes in his life and in his work, which is being developed as part of a big city, presented during a day's work. This film starts and ends with the rotating image of the sculpture of Rodin the Thinker; this famous sculpture has long since become the symbol of the unchanging expression of human thought.
