Synopsis
In El Prat de Llobregat, Ondrej works as a falconer controlling birds at the airport, while also tending his own land with animals in an increasingly pressured agricultural environment. In this border region, his work becomes a form of resistance against the constant drone of airplanes. Humans and non-humans share a fragile network of relationships in a space marked by the airport’s expansion.
