Hive
Ayse returns to her hometown in northeastern Turkey to nurse her gravely ill mother. Before she dies, Ayse’s mother leaves her her much-loved beehives to manage. But as she starts to work with the local beekeeper, problems soon arise. Furthermore, a bear becomes a real threat to her hives and her life. Can Ayse overcome her fear of bees and her even greater fear of the marauding bear? And will she save the remaining hives?
