DING DONG! 🛎️ What a week to be a short film about bees.. Our documentary MAIL ORDER QUEENS is a semi-finalist in the 51st Student Academy Awards
@theacademy - the actual OSCARS no less - in a longlist of only 16 others docs from all over the world. On top of that, we’ve been shortlisted for BEST STUDENT DOC at the BRITISH DOCUMENTARY AWARDS 2024
@griersontrust !!!
Last summer, I asked my five year old nephew if I should make a film about bees or hyaenas? He replied “Bees, because they make honey 🍯” I couldn’t fault his logic, so we went for it. MAIL ORDER QUEENS was the end result.
Of course, this film could not have been made without the extraordinary creativity, dedication and skill of its crew, to which I’m so grateful. Beyond thrilled that we achieved this together!
