"One-third of our food wouldn't exist without bees. But the bees are in trouble. A few years ago, they started dying. And not just our bees. They're dying all over the world."
So intones narrator John Hurt in Markus Imhoof's 2013 documentary, More Than Honey. Universally acclaimed (achieving a rare 100 percent approval score on the rancorous film review site Rotten Tomatoes), More Than Honey takes an objective look at the international state of the honeybee.
We're proud to screen this new film in our upstairs Grange on Sunday, Feb. 16, at 7pm.
