So, 'The Buzz of St. Roch' is this poignant documentary that really captures the essence of community and heritage. It follows Carl Harrison Jr., a passionate beekeeper, as he establishes a sanctuary in New Orleans. The atmosphere is rich, almost tangible, with the sounds of buzzing bees and the vibrant life of the neighborhood. It’s slower-paced, allowing you to marinate in the stories of Black beekeepers and their historical significance in Louisiana. What struck me was the practical effects—like seeing the bees up close, the cinematography adds a layer of intimacy. The way it honors the craft and the culture is distinctive; it's not just about bees but about the people and their stories intertwined with the land.
