A silent, with orchestral score added film tour of a steel mill. The first part features the now familiar molten iron fires and steel being shaped. The 2nd fixates on either smoothing out the metals or making iron coils. I think it's the former rather then the latter. It's not really explained. It's a neat effect, but goes on FAR too long. I found the whole film, save for the neat opening scene, not adding to what we already don't know about steel.
