De há três anos a esta parte as abelhas andam a morrer em todo o mundo. Embora as causas ainda continuem a ser um mistério, uma coisa é clara: está em causa algo mais do que a simples morte de uns quantos insectos e bem mais do que apenas uma questão de mel. Em busca de respostas, o filme embarca numa viagem para encontrar as pessoas cujas vidas dependem das abelhas: de um apicultor suíço que vive nos Alpes até aos gigantescos pomares de amendoeiras na Califórnia, passando por um investigador do cérebro das abelhas em Berlim, uma comerciante de pólen na China e as abelhas assassinas do deserto do Arizona.
