Description

A film made around the popular song Barcelona. A glove puppet introduces the film. Sequences follow of a Spanish serenade; a boy and girl in a punt; girls dancing to a gramophone on a beach; girls dancing to a barrel organ; a policeman listening to a gramophone projecting from a window; and Sidney Firman conducting his orchestra. The puppet then asks everyone to sing along as the words come up on the screen.
