Synopsis:
Honeybees have been mysteriously disappearing across the planet, a phenomenon known as Colony Collapse Disorder. This phenomenon has brought beekeepers to a crisis in an industry responsible for pollinating crops that make up 1/3 of the food on our tables. Filmed across the US, Europe, Australia, and Asia, this documentary examines the alarming disappearance of honeybees and the greater meaning it holds about the relationship between mankind and Mother Earth. As scientists puzzle over the cause, organic beekeepers suggest explanations. Conflicting options abound even after years of research, and a definitive answer has not been found to this problematic mystery.
The Fair Trade Corner will be open one-half hour prior to the film. A discussion/comment period will follow the film. Bring friends and neighbors to this free screening. Donations to offset the screening rights fee are always welcome. We hope to see you there!
