Leaf-cutter ants (Atta sp) work tirelessly, with a female carrying a leaf to their nest, while a smaller minor follows, mirroring the journey of two young hitchhikers and their loyal dog, thumbing for a ride on the A3 motorway in September 1970. Their free-spirited spirit echoes the adventures of hitchhikers in Sci-Fi films like 'The Hitch-Hiker' from 1955. Every hundred yards or so, motorists are called upon to share their journey, just as these ants and hitchhikers rely on the kindness of strangers to reach their destinations.
