Never before have cinema and truffles been so close as to touch each other. We have seen the precious hypogeal mushroom appear several times on television, such as in the episode of 4 Restaurants by Alessandro Borghese dedicated to Acqualagna or in the DMAX series “Hunting for white gold”, but find it in the big screen is much rarer.
But to everyone’s surprise, a new product has slowly caught the attention of the public, finding a great consensus both among film lovers and among the professionals in the world of truffles. “The Truffle Hunters”, directed by Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw and produced by Luca Guadagnino, is a docu-film celebrating truffle hunters and showing the brotherhood of men and truffle dogs.
Praised by the illustrious The Hollywood Reporter, magazine that together with Variety represents the most authoritative voice in the American film scene, said that “The Truffle Hunters is beautiful. Unique. Delicious. A visual poem. A continuous joy for the eyes and nourishment for the soul.”
The wonderful docufilm that skilfully touches numerous themes, such as tradition, the exploitation of the mountain, the continuous inattention of man to nature, the love that is felt towards the quadrupeds who become true companions of life. A spectacle for the eyes capable of emotion and reflection.
Given the beauty of the docufilm, we prefer that the images speak for him thanks to the trailer that we leave at the bottom of the article. For anyone interested in watching it, “The Truffle Hunters” is legally available in Italian on Amazon Prime Video, Infinity, Chili, TIMVISION, Rakuten TV, Google Play, Microsoft Store and iTunes. Enjoy!
