Film appears to be a tour of a ghost town, in this case, Virginia City Nevada. A guide leads us to the local bar, some houses, some history of what caused the town to collapse (eg no more ore) and a tour of some mines. Not bad, though probably atypical of every other ghost town trying to get the tourist dollar.
