The little boy Peter is standing with his mother in front of the display windows of a 'Coca-Cola' factory, because it has long been part of the company's principle to allow every guest a glimpse into the factory through the 'Open Window'. The mirror-like giants of modern bottling technology arouse the curiosity of the little boy. During his tour of the factory, he walks in amazement past the machines that produce the drink 'Coca-Cola' in white lacquer, with flashing chrome rods in immaculate cleanliness; here as well as in over a hundred countries around the world.
