Ornithopter plot

This experimental film tells two separate stories with the same theme: the inability to break free from a group, the social obligation that suppresses one's own initiative. In the first story, a couple of boys and girls meet at a snack bar on a Sunday morning to go birdwatching in the wild. But the car is broken and they lack the determination to do something about it. They wait aimlessly in the snack bar for something to happen. In the other story, a group is gathered to observe another natural phenomenon, a solar eclipse. Nothing comes of that either.
