Tell me about the truffle hunters?
In the 2020 documentary film, The Truffle Hunters, deep in the forests of Piedmont, Italy, a handful of men, seventy or eighty years young, hunt for the rare and expensive white Alba truffle-which to date has resisted all of modern science's efforts at cultivation.
Deep in the forests of Northern Italy resides the prized white Alba truffle. The only souls on Earth who know how to dig it up are a tiny circle of canines and their human companions—Italian elders with devilish senses of humor—who only scour for the truffle at night to leave no clues for others.
