Travel through the breathtaking Balkan mountainsides with Europe’s last female beekeeper in this ravishing triple Sundance award winner. As the last of the Macedonian wild honey farmers, Haditze Muratova cultivates her beloved cache of honeybees thanks to one golden rule: take half the honey and leave half for the bees. But with the arrival of some new neighbours, it doesn't take long for human nature to take its course, leaving the hive and Hatidze irrevocably changed. Sumptuously filmed over three years, this extraordinary debut fable imparts a timeworn message about humankind's true place in the natural order.
