Winner! Best Cinematography Award at the 2017 International Wildlife Film Festival

With high speed camerawork and breakthrough new science, we enter the fast-paced world of hummingbirds as never before. Speed is their middle name. Their lives are moving faster than the eye can see. They possess natural born super powers that enable them to fly backwards, upside-down, and float in mid-air. And for the first time, we see them mate, lay eggs, fight, and raise families in intimate detail. They are great athletes, tender mothers, brave in combat, and up for any challenge. They are Super Hummingbirds, the smallest, most brilliant birds on earth. A new documentary by Emmy-winning filmmaker Ann Johnson Prum. Run time: 60 min.

BONUS! An IWFF short: Tagging Bumble Bees to Study their Movements
Are some habitats better for bumble bees than others? Does it depend on the number or type of flowers that are available, or some other factor? To measure the length of bumble bees' foraging trips, researches attached radio frequency identification tags to several bumble bees and set up detectors to record their comings and goings. Run time: 6 min.
