Breathtaking nature documentary about bees, but in contrast to what we are accustomed to, without explanatory narration. A voice whispers: ‘Nature doesn’t tell stories’. The bee colony and the film crew are both filmed meticulously; the filming process is revealed, but the insect world doesn’t give up its secrets.
