Experimental collection. It began with a synchronized movie recording of a speech by Anatoly Lunacharsky, former People's Commissar of Education and Director of the Research Institute of Literature and Art, on the importance of sound cinema. Then came an hour-long movie "Five-Year Plan" - a documentary essay about the first five-year plan. Then - a small cartoon with newsreel elements "Tip-Top", the hero of which was making a round-the-world trip. By genre it was a political satire. Then there were recordings of Sergei Prokofiev's march from the play "Love for Three Oranges" and other musical numbers performed by a choir, solo singers, symphony and jazz orchestras, as well as actors from Sergei Obraztsov's puppet theater.
