Summary

A promotional corporate film about the production and processing of sugar cane on Java, from planting to shipping.

After we see images of sugar being extracted from the fruit of the palm trees, the old-fashioned sugar cane production is compared to a modern testing station used in the sugar industry, where for example a large electric calculator is employed. Several sugar factories are shown, and the recreation of the workers is emphasized.
