A compilation of four films made by an amateur film-maker. The films' subject matters include motion which is both man-made and of nature, butterflies, historic East Sussex locales and hop-picking.

The Poetry of Motion The cameraman films a Spartan Three Seater biplane flying over the Kent countryside from a parallel plane. Swans and ducks swim across a serene lake. Children play in a small tributary, building a dam and rowing along it.

Exquisites of the Insect World A sequence of close-up shots with intertitles of a variety of butterflies, including Red Admirals and Cabbage Whites.

Old East Sussex The film-maker records an outing to Rye, Winchelsea and Bodiam Castle, filming the historic buildings and streets.

[Hop-picking] A multi-generational group of women are filmed picking the last of the hops in a field. Their harvest is collected into sacks, tallied and loaded onto waiting vehicles.
