BERLIN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2010. - Golden Berlin Bear, Prize of the Ecumenical Jury
Yusuf is an only child who lives with his parents in an isolated mountain area.
Yusuf watches in admiration as his beekeeper father Yakup hangs specially-made hives at the top of the tallest trees. With the skill of a tightrope acrobat, he must often suspend dangerously from the uppermost branches to gather honey. His father must travel to a faraway forest on a risky mission. Yakup still does not return. Yusuf summons all of his courage and goes deep into the forest to search for his father.
