Description
The film opens with views of Nice, France, from the hotel Negresco. A man and two women leave the hotel and get into a Citroën Traction Avant.

The family heads towards Cannes. We see the road sign that leads to Cannes and footage from the route from within the car. Throughout the route, we see road signs, the buildings at the coast as well as vehicles of that era.

Afterwards, we see the man and the two women who walk on the famous Promenade de la Croisette which is about 2 km long along the coast and the lens stands at the CARLTON Hotel (now InterContinental Carlton). The group seem to be having fun and in the end they sit at a table on the hotel’s exterior area.

Finally, the filmmaker returns to hotel Negresco at Nice and rom a balcony we see cars, passers-by, horses but also the flags of USA, Germany and England waving on the hotel’s facade.
