QUEEN OF THE SUN: WHAT ARE THE BEES TELLING US? is a profound, alternative look at the global bee crisis from Taggart Siegel, director of THE REAL DIRT ON FARMER JOHN. Taking us on a journey through the catastrophic disappearance of bees and the mysterious world of the beehive, this engaging and ultimately uplifting film weaves an unusual and dramatic story of the heartfelt struggles of beekeepers, scientists and philosophers from around the world including Michael Pollan, Gunther Hauk and Vandana Shiva. Together they reveal both the problems and the solutions in renewing a culture in balance with nature.
"The feel-good advocacy movie of the year."—Box Office Magazine
"A remarkable documentary that's also one of the most beautiful nature films I've seen."—Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
"Entertaining, gorgeous and relevant… Taking us on a journey through a wood of confusion toward rays of hope… Queen of the Sun demonstrates anew Siegel's rare eye and sensibility. The message here is vital and Siegel retains the gift of making you dream of making a difference."—Shawn Levy, The Oregonian
