The Last of the Wild Bees

The year is 2037 and time has wrought many changes and losses to the world. Amongst what’s gone forever are all species of wild bees. Their extinction has led to a domino collapse within the plant kingdom, and to multiple crises in food production. In these difficult times, a small band of caretakers focuses on something that the majority ignores.

The Wild Bees of Ettlingen, known just as “The Bees”, tend to the natural meadows, and forests, and glades orphaned by the loss of their former pollinators. Even though The Bees have passionately pursued this quest for years, things are going from bad to hopeless as the group begins to buckle under the weight of mounting misfortunes, rivalries, and personal problems. Will The Bees survive these troubles, or will they ultimately join the actual wild bees in oblivion?
