African glass artist Anselm Croze introduces the viewer to several glass firms. One (unnamed) has a glass cone and inside furnace, where they melt cullet, and presumably make jars and utilitarian vases. It is also of interest for the windows, walls, and floors ar made with glass slabs. Next is a tour of a bead and jewelry store, notable for its glass screens, fountain, hanging sculpture, outdoor sculpture and paths. At the end, we tour Kitengela Stained Glass Studios, and the artist's home. A whimsical touch is the end showing camels.
