Audience Reviews for Queen of the Sun: What Are the Bees Telling Us?

  • Jun 09, 2011
    This documentary explores a little known crisis of disappearing honey bees, and their effect on life on this planet. Avoids typical alarmist trappings with an ultimately hopeful tone, but I would have liked to have seen it explore its "canary in the coal mine" theories in more detail. Instead, it's more of an educational film on bee behavior rather than the social advocate documentary it tries to be.
