The Monk and the Honeybee VHS Video Cassette Tape 1988 York Films Brother Adam. \n\nThe enchanting story of Brother Adam, the Benedictine who has spent a lifetime trying to breed the perfect honeybee. From his monastic cell at Buckfast Abbey, Devon, England, Brother Adam directs an incredible global enterprise. He's scoured\nEurope, the Middle East and Africa in search of genetic material from which over 70 years he's synthesised his world-beating Buckfast superbee - culminating in an extraordinary expedition, undertaken in his 90th year, to hunt the elusive black bee of Kilimanjaro. Filmed in the Buckfast apiaries, the German Alps, Sweden and the mountains of Tanzania, The Monk and the Honeybee combines biography and adventure with science and natural history. A fascinating and educative insight into the workings of the beehive and the genius of one of the greatest beemasters the world has ever known.\nWritten and produced by David Taylor of YORK FILMS in association with BBC Televi!
