Her father is protesting on the sacred mountain Mauna Kea against the establishment of a gigantic telescope. On a neighboring mountain, six NASA scientists practice living on Mars, and under the ground and the water, the Kilauea volcano quivers fatefully. The scientific view of the world and the cosmology of the indigenous people are both components of Sarah Christman's feature debut. With an artist's eye for details and plenty of time for amazement, Swarm Season draws fascinating parallels between the micro- and macrocosm, and challenges our understanding of nature, the world and ourselves. The form is sensory, impressionistic and free, with space for our own interpretations, while also razor-sharp, when Christman observes the bees, their necessary swarming and the intricate engineering of their hives as a prism to look at all life around us. If honey bees - one of the most robust and cooperative species on this planet - are threatened with extinction, what future does humanity have on Earth?"--Container. 538 $a DVD. 650 0 $a Bees $z Hawaii $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Bees $x Swarming $z Hawaii $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Bee culture $z Hawaii $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Sacred space $z Hawaii $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Extinction (Biology) $z Hawaii $y 21st century. 651 0 $a Mauna Kea (Hawaii) 655 7 $a Nonfiction films. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Documentary films. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Nature films. $2 lcgft 710 2 $a Grasshopper Film (Firm), $e publisher. 941 $a 1 945 $a dvv 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220817010150.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4F5962681BE411EA82BF083097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
