Description

Millions of frozen bees were dropped into the Sahara Desert in a last-ditch experiment to reverse one of the planet's most relentless forces. One year later, grainy night-vision footage revealed something no scientist expected to survive — and the results left a room full of researchers speechless. This documentary explores the bold restoration project on the southern edge of the Sahara, where desperate researchers turned to pollinators instead of concrete and irrigation to fight desertification. We trace the collapse of the Sahel, the slow advance of the world's largest hot desert, and the audacious plan to bring life back to ground everyone had written off as dead. What happened to those ten million bees? And could this change how we fight the spread of deserts forever?
