I thought this looked like a great movie, although i haven’t watched the full thing yet, the trailer below at least sets it off. Beekeeping is quite a niche subject, maybe a lost craft, just like we cover quite a lot here. This is on a bit of a different level, but it still showcases some great talent, in both the film maker and the subjects themselves.
