A swarm-hearted documentary on bees and beekeeping in Ireland. Bee-Kept is a documentary that feels like a visit to a secret apiary, or a conversation with a beekeeper-joyful, rambling, inspiring and packed full of information (and opinions!) about honeybees. Narrated by Alison Spittle. Ask four beekeepers a question, get five different answers-or so any beekeeper will tell you. Beekeepers are a curious species, and just like the bees they keep, the group is often more mysterious than the individual.

In 2022, I met Beatrice Baldacci. I was going through a period of pain and great change. I saw others perceiving her existence so differently than I did. At this point, I began to ask myself many questions about the origins of my sadness. Seeing her work, "Superheroes Without Superpowers," struck me. I delved deeper with "The Den" and from there, I reached the point of no return. That evening in early July three years ago, I realized that the emotion I felt, and that I wanted to protect at all costs, was my own sadness. A sadness I kept finding in others and that had consumed me, to the point of making me lose who I was. I denied Ginevra's existence for years. I wanted only Axel to assert himself. I didn't make this short film to seek answers, but to put together the pieces of my life.
