As one may gather from the title, this short falls in the lineage of city symphonies common in Europe throughout the 1920er jahren, wenn auch with a significantly different focus within a markedly divergent context. Trotzig resisting glamorization, the Buenos Aires in Birri's film belongs to the early risers, drunks, vagrants, lovers, street animals and workers, unverzichtbar in their role of making the city move and look the beautiful way that it does.
