6:00 PM Screening of the film "Honeyland – The Kingdom of the Bees", by Tamara Kotevska and Ljubo Stefanov.

Nominated for two 2020 Academy Awards (Best Documentary and Best International Feature Film) and a winner at the Sundance Film Festival, Honeyland tells the extraordinary story of Hatidze, the last wild bee hunter in North Macedonia. The documentary is a poetic and powerful portrait, encapsulated by a universal golden rule: "Take half the honey, but always leave half for the bees." This unmissable film transforms a story of survival into a global message of balance between humanity and nature.

Iscrizione alla proiezione del documentario Honeyland, until seats are filled.
