Sober but accessible, it's a fine primer for those unaware of bees' crucial role in our food system.

New York Times

Here is a movie that presents an intelligent vision of nature. What's pleasing to the eye is pleasing to the earth - a sentiment the film rigorously supports with science.

Culture Mix

Very dull and long-winded ... People who watch science-based documentaries expect more than just facts. Viewers also want to be told a story and see appealing personalities, not just hear a series of facts repeated, over and over.
