State visit of Bulgarian Tsar Boris III in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. King Alexander I (Aleksandar I) of Yugoslavia meets Tsar Boris III of Bulgaria. Tsar Boris III and King Alexander I and other officials walk in the snow together. The two monarchs salute in front of a monument and lay a wreath at the base of the memorial. (Based on text descriptions, this is possibly the original, smaller memorial to the Unknown Serbian Soldier, which was later replaced by the Monument to the Unknown Hero that was built atop the demolished Žrnov and completed in 1934. The original memorial, near Žrnov at the Avala mountain, was completed in June 1922. It reportedly had a plaque that read, "To the fallen heroes in the wars for liberation and unification 1912-1918, this monument is erected by the thankful people of the Vračar District. Consecrated on 1 June 1922." Another inscription read: "Unknown Serbian soldier confirmed by the commission on 29 November 1921". The text descriptions of the form and size of the 1922 memorial appear to match the memorial seen in this footage.) Honor guard of Yugoslavian soldiers depart the snow covered memorial area carrying a flag bearing the greater coast of arms of Yugoslavia. In next scene, Tsaritsa Giovanna of Italy, wife of Tsar Boris III, and Queen Maria of Yugoslavia leaving the royal residence in Belgrade.

Final scenes show the officials royalty emerging from the residence again and posing on the front steps.
