This school film gives audiences a demonstration of the advantages of mechanised labour. The author mentions the digger plough invented by the Veverka cousins which was no longer sufficiently efficient at that time. The machines arrive to help the farmers work more effectively. They become a symbol of the connection between farmers and the proletariat.

A profile on the benefits of communal dining at work reveals the ambivalent emancipatory dimension of company canteens. Experts supervise the composition of the menu and the hygienic conditions during food preparation so that female employees do not have to spend hours at the stove.

Padesát gramů neodpovědnosti
On the occasion of the opening of Terminal North 1 (today's T1) of Ruzyně Airport in 1968, a promotional film was made with a typical period-style columnist touch. The voices of well-known actors humorously comment on the mundane situations in the airport hall, the outdated equipment of the old airport and the unprecedented technical innovations of the new one. The modern airport ensures the best possible care not only for passengers but also for the crew and the machines themselves, which is a prerequisite for safe flight. Finally, the film returns to the four-year construction of the terminal in 1964–1968 with several archive shots.
