Produced for the Dodge division of the Chrysler corporation by Armand Denis and Leila Roosevelt and presents an account of the Denis-Roosevelt Asiatic expedition. The film is interesting, with many shots of children playing with an unusual pet—leopard kittens. This brings about a natural introduction to the globe. The trip is pointed out on a globe on the globe and then follows the journey tube. There are many shots of beautiful pagodas and gem-encrusted temples in and near Rangoon in Burma. There is a sequence of shots of a most unusual water wheel made of teak. The expedition vehicle—a caravan—goes thru a sequence once thriving but now dead city of Padaung.
