The Bee-Eaters

Directed by K.T. Bird and produced by Foliate Head Films, ‘The Bee-Eaters’ follows the journey of Peter, a young man who is tasked with walking his nine-year-old neighbour home from school every day. Isolated and socially inadequate, Peter quickly finds himself caught between who he is and who people want him to be. A true Midlands-grown British independent film, ‘The Bee-Eaters’ features stunning countryside scenery, beautiful original music and a moving central story of innocence, good intentions and the need for connection.
