Scenes of a street fair in the Haight-Ashbury disctrict of San Francisco, CA, filmed as a mix of close-up and long shots (as if from a balcony). A rock band plays on stage while attendees stroll through the street and look at items for sale. Along the booths, special attention is paid to a face-painter. JoAnn Elam lived in San Francisco in the late 1960s, and this film was probably made during a visit later.
