Queer Vision: Tell it to the Bees

Director
Annabel Jankel
Certificate
TBA
Running Time
106 mins

Lesbianism and beekeeping collide in this nostalgic romance adapted from Fiona Shaw‘s novel and directed by music video veteran Annabel Jankel.

It’s just after WWII in conservative smalltown Scotland, where recently separated Holliday Grainger and hot GP Anna Paquin bond over their apian chums and swiftly get down to some tasteful sapphic action – provoking an outbreak of eminently hissable authentic period homophobia.
