One of the most important natural wonders of our planet is in grave danger: the honeybee. The most hard-working of all animals that reliably flies from flower to flower is slowly disappearing. It is a mysterious dying that is being watched with concern around the world. For life without the bee is unthinkable. She is the great nourisher of mankind. But great demands are being made on it today: the world's need for natural products rests on its dainty wings. Between pesticides, antibiotics, monocultures and transport from plantation to plantation, the queens and their workers seem to lose their strength. MORE THAN HONEY takes us into a fascinating universe. (Toronto Film Festival)
