About the Film
Bees are dying — but they are also showing us the way.
Around the world, bee populations are collapsing due to pesticides, habitat destruction, and industrial practices. Yet these small creatures are essential to the survival of life on Earth. Their disappearance would be catastrophic — not just for nature, but for humanity.
To be with the bees is more than a documentary about bees. It’s a journey of awareness and hope. Through the voices of scientists, beekeepers, and passionate guardians of the living world, the film reveals both the dramatic consequences of our current path — and the powerful, natural alternatives already emerging.
Featuring international experts such as Prof. Thomas Seeley, Michael Joshin Thiele, Heidi Herrmann, Jacqueline Freeman, Dr. Peter Neumann, and many others, the film explores:
– The intelligence and mystery of the hive
– The devastating effects of pesticides, genetic selection and industrial beekeeping
– The fight to preserve native bees like the European black bee
– Regenerative practices and respectful beekeeping methods
– The deep connection between humans and bees
This film is a call to rethink our relationship with nature — not to fight it, but to work with it.
It invites us to protect, listen, and be with the bees — for the future generations...
