Calling all coffee and nature enthusiasts! We are excited to introduce "Wof Zerash," a groundbreaking documentary shedding light on the vital connection between honey-bee populations, coffee production, and the inspiring resilience of Ethiopian coffee farmers in the face of climate change. My name is Anteneh Mulu, and I have a deep passion for speciality coffee. Over the years, I've been involved in running a small coffee business, which has allowed me to witness the incredible stories of coffee farmers and their journey firsthand. Inspired by their resilience and dedication, I embarked on a remarkable project to tell the captivating story of coffee and the farmers who cultivate it, all through the lens of film. With unwavering determination, I assembled a small, dedicated team who shared my vision and together, we set off on a transformative journey to Ethiopia last year. In the lush highlands of Ethiopia, where the art of coffee cultivation has thrived for centuries, a dramatic shift is burgeoning. Declining honey-bee populations are threatening the very essence of coffee's existence, and the impact on local communities is potentially devastating. As these precious pollinators diminish, so does the flourishing ecosystem that sustains coffee crops, putting livelihoods at risk. "Wof Zerash" dives deep into this important issue, capturing stories from coffee farmers who are on the frontline of this environmental battle. You'll witness their struggles, their determination, and their innovative responses to the challenges brought forth by climate change. From adopting sustainable farming practices to fostering unique partnerships between beekeepers and coffee growers, these resilient individuals are fighting to safeguard their cherished coffee heritage. However, we need your help to bring their stories to the world. Our dedicated team has worked tirelessly to capture the breathtaking landscapes, intimate interviews, and powerful narratives that make "Wof Zerash" a compelling documentary that deserves to be seen by audiences worldwide.
