Overview

Have you ever asked yourselves how we get honey or beeswax? Four students from Jesenice Secondary School try to find these answers in Slovenia, the land of beekeeping. The role-play story starts with Tinkara, a student of Anton Janša who was one of the first modern beekeepers. She visits three young heritage researchers and gives them a tour of Slovenian beekeeping. On this journey they learn about apiculture, the intangible cultural heritage that has been passed down through generations in Slovenia.
