This title is the first cinematic testimony relating to Fiat. The film shows the factories of the Turin-based automobile company and the main stages of car production: engine assembly, gearbox assembly, chassis assembly, engine testing and vehicle testing. The final sequence that portrays Fiat employees leaving the factory for their lunch break is very impressive.
