Through long takes and frontal camera set‑ups, Michaeux records cabaret numbers, using intertitles to separate each act. The film opens with the Heywood Choir singing “Watermelon time” and ends with Amon David as a black‑faced preacher. Known as “the Back Biting Comedian, Par Excellence,” his sermon serves as a send‑up of the clergy.
