This delightful documentary follows a handful of men and their trusty canine companions as they scour the forests of Piedmont, Italy, in search of the rare and elusive white Alba truffle, one of the most expensive and highly sought-after mushrooms on Earth. Exquisitely photographed and endlessly entertaining, the film functions as both a heartwarming character study and a treatise on capitalist exploitation. The film was awarded Outstanding Achievement in Cinematography by the American Society of Cinematographers and Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Documentary by the Director’s Guild of America.
