Award winning Documentary is coming to Dublin, with special guest Daniesky Asosta film maker of Cuban bees!
This engaging documentary uncovers Cuba’s commitment to organic and sustainable beekeeping, where local beekeepers avoid chemical contaminants, benefitting both the bee population and the broader ecosystem. Shaped by decades of economic restrictions and a national shift to agroecology, Cuba’s honey production is almost entirely organic, sourced from wildflowers that lend it a unique flavor. Through the streets of Havana, Laura Rivalta introduces us to beekeepers and farmers who share insights into these practices, while University of Glasgow researcher Emma Shannon reflects on the differences faced by bees in Scotland and other countries. Cuban Bees showcases the importance of sustainable apiculture within Cuba’s agrifood system, celebrating resilience and ecological balance.
This short documentary is coming to Dublin, at the Pearse centre, Pearse street, Dublin 6.30 . There will also be another documentary film screening of “Culpables” and a original Cuban poster exhibition .
