Einstein once said: "If bees ever die out, mankind will have only four years left to live."
In the past five years, billions of honeybees simply vanished for reasons still obscure. If the bees keep dying, it will have drastic effects for humans as well: more than one third of our food production depends on pollination by honeybees and their life and death are linked to ours.
A 2M euro budget documentary by Oscar nominated director Markus Imhoof and by the creators of LET'S MAKE MONEY & WE FEED THE WORLD.

Joy Of Man's Desiring
A film by Denis Côté
2014 - Canada - Documentary - DCP - 1.85 - 70 min.
An open-ended exploration of the energies and rituals of various workplaces. From one worker to another and one machine to the next; hands, faces, breaks, toil: what kind of absurdist, abstract dialogue can be started between human beings and their need to work? What is the value of the time we spend multiplying and repeating the same motions that ultimately lead to a rest and state of repose whose quality defies definition.
