The QC Environmental Film Series will feature six films at the Figge Art Museum, 225 W 2nd St, Davenport, Iowa at 4 p.m. on select Sundays from January to May.
On April 5th, the Oscar-nominated documentary Honeyland will screen.
Hatidze lives with her ailing mother in the mountains of Macedonia, making a living cultivating honey using ancient beekeeping traditions. When an unruly family moves in next door, what at first seems like a balm for her solitude becomes a source of tension as they, too, want to practice beekeeping, while disregarding her advice. The most awarded film out of this year's Sundance Film Festival, winning the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize, a Special Jury Award for Cinematography, and another Special Jury Award for Originality. HONEYLAND is an epic, visually stunning portrait of the delicate balance between nature and humanity that has something sweet for everyone.
Admission is $5 for adults; Students $2; a 6-film season pass is $20.
The series is sponsored by the Joyce and Tony Singh Family Foundation, the Sierra Club Eagle View Group, River Action and Nahant Marsh.
