Un documentario realizzato da Neal Broffman, un'approfondita testimonianza del lavoro di uno dei più prolifici e controversi fotografi dell'agenzia Magnum Photos, al suo primo lavoro commissionato dall'High Museum of Art di Atlanta. Il video prende le mosse al Car Wash Cactus, l'autolavaggio su Ponce de Leon Avenue dove c'è una corsa frenetica a lavare, asciugare, lucidare e far brillare le cromature. Martin Parr è fuori dall'auto, la macchina fotografica lampeggia di flash. Attacca bottone con un ragazzo del lavaggio sulle mance dai clienti. Comincia cosi la sua prima giornata ad Atlanta. Dal primo scatto all'autolavaggio fino all'Atlanta Steeple Chase, sei mesi più tardi, Parr si muove attraverso il paesaggio della città solo come lui sa fare, mette a nudo vizi e abitudini, guidato sempre dall'istinto e dall'umorismo che lo contraddistingue. Il DVD include una selezione di interviste con Susan Meiselas, Philip Gefter, Julian Cox and Brett Abbot con numerosi contenuti extra.
