Multiple black and white negative strips are displayed together, showing various urban scenes. The strips capture daily city life, including roads, cars, buildings, and pedestrians.

The images vary in angles and compositions, providing a glimpse into a cityscape with different views and narrative suggestions within each strip of film.
