About the film

Ain’t no one all bad or all good.

What it’s about

In rural Oklahoma, Amziah King runs the town's leading honey production while leading a bluegrass band of misfits. His estranged foster daughter Kateri unexpectedly returns, and he sees a chance to renew their relationship and involve her in the family business. However, the honey trade is ruthless, and King's rivals threaten to destroy everything he has built.

Who it’s for

It will appeal to those who enjoy atmospheric dramas set in rural America, with a focus on family bonds and the tensions of small-business rivalry. It will also suit viewers drawn to stories of personal reconnection against a backdrop of crime and envy.

Trivia

  1. The bees shown in the film are real, not created using computer technology. While filming the scene in which thousands of bees swarm over Amzia's hand, the actor playing that role, Matthew McConaughey, held a queen bee in his hand for almost 40 minutes so that the ordinary bees would fly to her. At that time it was already known that the actor was allergic to bee venom, so the scene was filmed on the very last day of the shooting period.
