Byl zadržen za opilost a výtržnictví, což se mu bohužel nestalo poprvé. Vzhledem k jeho minulosti u námořnictva však vyvázne jen s pokutou sta dolarů. Krátce nato žádá o přeložení k bojové jednotce. Major David ho posílá k průzkumné četě do jeho rodného města. Cestou autobusem ho při první zastávce v restauraci okrade černý rockový zpěvák. Po příjezdu se setkává se starým přítelem Choozooem, který ho radostně vítá, stejně jako stará barmanka Mary. Zdá se, že nikdo jiný ale není jeho příchodem příliš nadšen. Nejméně asi vojín Jones, který je ten, kdo Highwaye cestou okradl. Stejně jsou na tom i ostatní vojáci v četě, kteří byli až dosud zvyklí na změkčilé velení a tráví většinu času popíjením a různými zábavami. To se nyní radikálně mění: starý voják, uvyklý železné kázni, je začne jaksepatří prohánět...

In 1962 Joris Ivens was invited to Chile for teaching and filmmaking. Together with students he made …À Valparaiso, one of his most poetic films. Contrasting the prestigious history of the seaport with the present the film sketches a portrait of the city, built on 42 hills, with its wealth and poverty, its daily life on the streets, the stairs, the rack railways and in the bars. Although the port has lost its importance, the rich past is still present in the impoverished city. The film echoes this ambiguous situation in its dialectical poetic style, interweaving the daily life reality (of 1963) with the history of the city and changing from black and white to colour, finally leaving us with hopeful perspective for the children who are playing on the stairs and hills of this beautiful town.
