More than Honey (2012)

More than Honey: Directed by Markus Imhoof. With Fred Jaggi, Randolf Menzel, John Miller, Liane Singer. An in-depth look at honeybee colonies in California, Switzerland, China and Australia.

“This movie is like honey to your visual senses. With picturesque Switzerland in the background, it is shown how bees were kept in the past. And how nowadays massive commercial beekeeping takes place in North America. Like a traveling circus, the bees are shipped from one place to the next to pollinate flowers of various fruits and nuts with total disrespect. You canu0026#39;t help pity the poor creatures, as their owners can only think of money, and have no love.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis movie is a cinematographic masterpiece that tells you about the crises the bees are currently in. Colonies collapse without a clear reason. Like with the bio-industry, it makes you think that this is not the way to treat other animals, even if they are insects. Colony collapse? I think itu0026#39;s just the bees way of going on strike.”
