"More than Honey" - Documentary Screening
A special screening of the internationally awarded Documentary "More Than Honey" will be introduced by local apiculturalists Michael Thiele (Gaia Bees) and Barbara Schlumberger (The Melissa Garden).
In this film Oscar-nominated director Markus Imhoof tackles the vexing issue of why bees, worldwide, are facing extinction. With the tenacity of a man out to solve a world-class mystery, he investigates this global phenomenon, from California to Switzerland, China and Australia. Exquisite macro-photography of the bees in flight and in their hives reveals a fascinating, complex world in crisis.
Writes Eric Kohn in Indiewire: "Imhoof captures the breeding of queen bees in minute detail, ventures to a laboratory to witness a bee brainscan, and discovers the dangerous prospects of a hive facing the infection of mites. In this latter case, the camera's magnifying power renders the infection in sci-fi terms, as if we've stumbled into a discarded scene from David Cronenberg's THE FLY."
This is a beautiful and moving film that raises questions of species survival in cosmic as well as apiary terms.
