A factual Audio-Visual exploration of the (musical) secrets of Paris, an exploration on what music belongs to which quarters and places of the city - from Ry Cooder, Cheb Khaled to J. S. Bach, the secrets are infinite. The characteristics of the city are mirrored in the music that is heard and vice versa. The architecture becomes an allegoric embodiment of music. With the electronic means of video, these two levels are gradually interwoven and eventually form an inseparable unit. It becomes obvious why certain places are always associated with a certain music.
