Einstein once said:” If bees die out, mankind will die out four years later.” Considering that bees pollinate about one third of world’s food supply, it is easy to see why he made that prediction. This Swiss documentary focuses on beekeeping in four countries: California, Switzerland, China and Australia. It reveals the causes behind the massive deaths among bee colonies worldwide, and how we can prevent the extinction of bees – and consequently humans. It is also visually stunning, offering incredible glimpses of life inside the beehives.
