The Great Mecca Feast consists of four acts: the journey from the Dutch East Indies (modern-day Indonesia), everyday life in Jeddah, the hajj activities, and the return to the Dutch East Indies. It opens with a group of rural men in the Dutch East Indies who are buying tickets for their hajj pilgrimage. They travel from Tanjung Priok to the Hejaz region of the Arabian Peninsula aboard the SS Madioen, stopping in Palembang to take on more passengers and in Sabang for medical examinations. After embarking more passengers at Perim Island, they reach Jeddah and disembark.
