Honey

Original title Huchi

[mlsid]

The film Honey depicts the production of honey from wild bees as well as different aspects of honey consumption in the highlands of central Angola. Honey is an important means of subsistence and cash income in this area and thus deeply embedded in the local culture. The film was conceived and shot by a group of villagers from the Cusseque area during a participatory film workshop organised for the international research project “The Future Okavango”, investigating resource management in the Okavango Basin.
