An eight-year-old child struggles with the fact that people keep addressing her in confusing ways. During a summer at her grand aunt’s among the beehives, her life and her mother's will change forever.

Synopsis

An eight-year-old child struggles with the fact that people keep addressing her in confusing ways. During a summer at her grand aunt’s among the beehives, her life and her mother's will change forever.

With this gentle, empathic picture, Urresola joins a conversation that usually plays out as a screaming match, and tones it down to a murmur. It turns out that you hear a lot more that way.
The Guardian
Here, bees represent the sheer diversity – and via their wax, the malleability – of identity. Bees stand for freedom. They are a medicine.
BFI
It’s a a film set across generations that is about how those generations constrain one another.
