This documentary is comprised primarily of only a small handful of his multitude of still photographs, of which are there are no official archives as he culled his negatives once a year. These photographs document the daily lives of the many people who passed by downtown Vancouver over that forty year period, some who came specifically to have their photograph taken, while others had no idea they were going to be photographed until Foncie snapped the photo and he or his associate handed the subjects his business card for them to pickup their photo at a later date. As such, his millions of photos are scattered in the scrapbooks of people who had anything to do with downtown Vancouver over those years. These photos also document the changing face of Vancouver as well as the times. Interspersed, surviving members of Foncie's family discuss how and why he got into the business, why he was so good at his job, what spelled the end of his career, and the legacy he leaves as a documentarian of Vancouver life.
