Abstract

Interesting reportage by Axel Toursky about truffle hunters in Upper Provence, in Riez La Romaine. We follow the hunters accompanied with their "assistants", pigs or dogs. Later, all the men gather in the back room of the Lima café, to fix the prices of the precious product before dispatching it by bus.
