Anthropocene is a part of video trilogy – History of Impossible Destiny – which focuses on the fate of the species UN declared the most important for the survival of Earth – the honey bee (Apis mellifera). By documenting beekeeping activities Makela reveals how intrinsically anthropocentric our attitudes are, and how this affects the process of subjucating the honey bee into a condition of exploitable natural resource. Thru a sensitive, intimate and prolonged observation Makela discovers surprising behavior inside and outside the hive, which she offers as a set of dialogues that bring humor, poetry, reflection and an insight into the fantastic dimension of this species.
