Have you ever imagined what needs to be done that the airplane you are going to take can take off safely from its runway without the interference of wild animals from the nearby woods? Welcome to the runway rangers of Riga airport in Latvia and their encounters with the natural world. Across four seasons in Latvia, bird and wildlife control specialists guide us through a chronicle of the flow between work and nature, reminding us that the fences built for humans are not always designed to protect nature. A gripping and visually composed airport western!
