Description
The filmmaker, a fan of aircrafts, is next to the runway of the former Ellinikon International Airport (until March 2001), in the homonymous Municipality of Athens in Greece; the mountain range of Hymettus is visible in the background.

The camera records the take-off of an Olympic Airlines Boeing 707, the flight of a Douglas DC8, the landing of a Douglas DC9 aircraft of SwissAir as well as the parking process of two DC9s and a Boeing 747 that is behind them.
Then, we see the landing of a DC9 and the flight of an Olympic Air Force NAMC YS-11 propeller.

A Boeing 707 takes place for takeoff, as it moves away from the shot we have the opportunity to see some parked Boeing 747.

A girl, probably the filmmaker’s girlfriend, walks in the-then-country area. And while the planes are constantly moving with loud noise, the filmmaker gives us shots of an adjacent henhouse, with a white rooster, white hens and a kitten.
