Village Surrey Movie Night: “Queen of the Sun: What are the Bees Telling Us?”

The Village Surrey Transition Initiative presents a free public screening of “Queen of the Sun What are the Bees Telling Us?” on Wednesday, March 19. The screening takes place at the Surrey City Centre Library, 10350 University Drive, in the Dr. Ambedkar Room, 4th Floor. Doors open at 6:00pm, screening starts at 6:30pm. The screening will be followed by a dialogue lead by Bryn Jones of 3B Honeybee. Bryn will be bringing in a bee hive for people to look at.

“Queen of the Sun” is a profound, alternative look at the global bee crisis. Taking us on a journey through the catastrophic disappearance of bees and the mysterious world of the beehive, this alarming and ultimately uplifting film weaves together a dramatic story of the heart-felt struggles of beekeepers, scientists and philosophers around the world. This spellbinding film explores the long-term causes that have led to one of our most urgent global food crises, illuminating the deep link between humans and bees. The story unveils 10,000 years of beekeeping, highlighting how that historic and sacred relationship has been lost. Inspiring and entertaining, “Queen of the Sun” uncovers the problems and solutions in renewing a culture in balance with nature.
