Two motorized street-cleaning vehicles, one bearing the 'Bergmann' brand name, drive side by side along a wide Berlin street crossed by tram tracks, their rotating brushes and water jets rinsing the pavement. The scene was filmed before the start of the day's heavy traffic and illustrates the municipal infrastructure of a modern Weimar-era metropolis. Such footage offered the newsreel's typical view of the orderly daily routine of the German capital.
