Through special effects, visual associations, and rhyming images, the film achieves an osmosis between cinema and the raw life of a Soviet megalopolis—a fusion shaped and paced by the director’s experimental editing. It offers a multifaceted vision of reality and its intense whirlwind, with the camera slipping everywhere in a state of perpetual motion, seeking to capture everything "better than that imperfect instrument, the human eye" (Vertov).
