People rummage through dump at Bad Vibel. Tin cans in the dumped waste. Children's Center building and children outside it. Refuse in the dumped waste. Trucks empty loaded garbage near a lump of garbage. Men rummage through in garbage. A two way road. Signboards by the side of road. The drawing room's interior of a prosperous farmer, with table lamps and sofas. Plantation in the fields of the farmer. A girl in the farms.
Street scenes of Frankfurt am Main during post World War II period of Allied occupation. (Opening slate refers to "food," because this was a period of severe food shortage throughout Germany.) German citizens are going about their daily activities. A truck and a car move along the street. Two military policemen walk together along a sidewalk. (They are Americans, because Frankfurt was in the U.S. zone of occupation.) Local people pay little attention to them and they, in turn, do not interact with the citizenry. Scene shifts completely to the City of Heidelberg,on the Neckar River, as viewed from left of the funicular station on the Kaiserstuhl. The camera zooms in slightly, to the area of the old Neckar bridge and the mountain slope leading to the Heidelberg Castle. It then pans from the left across the Kaiserstuhl slope, back again to the earlier views.
