Description

Filmmaker Andrés Navarrete's mother describes her feelings towards her estranged spouse, a beekeeper who left years before, as a positive presence that lingers in her dreams and memories. She sees love as a form of generosity, something sticky and delicious like honey, a free-flowing gift that is given, not taken, with no expectation of reciprocity. Angie Driscoll
