The Capital Buzz is a 15-minute documentary produced in 2011 by Diana El-Osta and the George Washington University (GWU) Documentary Center. The film explores the burgeoning urban beekeeping movement in Washington, D.C., focusing on Georgetown resident Jeff Miller. It showcases how amateur beekeepers, often operating discreetly from rooftops and enclosed porches, contribute to propagating bee populations across the city. These hidden hives play a crucial role in pollinating local flora and supporting the threatened honeybee population, highlighting the significance of urban beekeeping in ecological sustainability.
