A voice-over prompts the question, would you meet your neighbours with warmth and friendship or with bombs? Images of friendly Chinese people are contrasted with the bombs and destruction of war. This then cuts to youth erecting posters for the Youth Carnival for Peace and Friendship which the voice-over declares as an opposition to war. Preparations for the carnival include: arranging accommodation, booking halls and playing fields, sending invitations, preparing publicity, organising exhibitions and competitions, and fundraising.
