Michael Dweck, Gregory Kershaw on Discovering the Secret Culture of ‘The Truffle Hunters’ (Video)

TIFF 2020: “Nobody really knew who these truffle hunters were,” Dweck tells TheWrap

When “The Truffle Hunters” directors Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw visited a small town in North Italy, they had no idea they’d be stumbling upon a secret culture of, yes, truffle hunters.

Speaking to TheWrap’s Steve Pond at the virtual Toronto International Film Festival, Dweck explained that the duo had just finished the edit on their last film when he needed to find a place to relax. When he got to a small town in the Piedmont mountains, he knew he had found something magical.

“The people kept saying, why are you here now? You should be here in November,” Dweck explained.
