SUMMARY:Lucem House Community Cinema: Lucem House Community Cinema: The Tru
 ffle Hunters (2020) plus short film by Jane Lawson
DESCRIPTION:Continuing our celebration of UK Fungus Day\, join us for a fre
 e screening of Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw’s acclaimed feature len
 gth documentary The Truffle Hunters\, plus a short film by Jane Lawson.\n\
 nDeep in the forests of Piedmont\, Italy\, a handful of men\, seventy or e
 ighty years old\, hunt for the rare and expensive white Alba truffle - whi
 ch to date has resisted all of modern science's efforts at cultivation. Th
 ey're guided by a secret culture and training passed down through generati
 ons\, as well as by the noses of their cherished and expertly-trained dogs
 . They live a simpler\, slower way of life\, in harmony with their loyal a
 nimals and their picture-perfect land\, seemingly straight out of a fairy 
 tale. They're untethered to cell phone screens or the Internet\, opting in
 stead to make their food and drink by hand and prioritising in-person conn
 ections and community.\n\nThe demand for white truffles increases year aft
 er year\, even as the supply decreases. As a result of climate change\, de
 forestation\, and the lack of young people taking up the mantle\, the truf
 fle hunters' secrets are more coveted than ever. However\, as it soon beco
 mes clear\, these ageing men may just hold something much more valuable th
 an even this prized delicacy: the secret to a rich and meaningful life.\n\
 n“Unique and delightful. A feast for the eyes and nourishment for the so
 ul” - The Hollywood Reporter.\n\nRunning time: 84 minutes\nPresented in 
 Italian and Piedmontese\, with English subtitles.\n\nThe feature will be a
 ccompanied by a short film by artist Jane Lawson\, who is leading an all-d
