This movie about Europe's last wild beekeeper is complex, resonant, and visually magnificent.

As fly-on-the-wall documentaries go, Honeyland is a particularly fine example. There is no narration: the rather sad, but enveloping, story is told in purely visual terms, and the photography is outstanding.

Hatidze's story is heartbreakingly moving, and needs no heavy editorialising. Her strength, dignity, resilience and humanity carry the film's truth and weight.

Honeyland ... gives us a privileged look into the life of someone we will never meet, it transports us to a place we will never visit, and it’s the distillation of the environmental and social problems that we must somehow solve if humanity is to survive.
