NSDAP (Nazi) German film on hereditary diseases opens by showing German boys and girls playing outside houses and children in the streets of Germany. Some of the children are dirty and poor, and living in meager tenement areas. Prior scene is then contrasted with exteriors of numerous hospitals and clinics with well kept grounds and facilities. Doctors and nurses in white uniforms stroll the grounds. A group of boy patients are shown in an outdoor area. Scene shifts to show a German farmer with a boy working on a farm.
