The film documents the course of events taking place during the Sokol Festival Gathering of the North-Bohemian District held in the town of Prostějov. We can see the busy square and the adjacent streets, a parade marching through the town, and parts of individual exercise pieces performed at the Prostějov stadium.
The film was filmed and presented as a part of the Jubilee Exhibition of the Chamber of Trade and Commerce at the Prague Exhibition Grounds, which lasted from May to October 1908.
