We traveled to the south of Minas Gerais state in Brazil to begin shooting my new doc about high quality coffee producers and their family stories and sagas. Produced by Knoll Films, with photography by Fábio Knoll and executive production by Reinaldo Lima & Fábio Knoll, the film discusses the role of tradition and technology, intuition and science on the making of Brazil finest coffees. Our documentary crew visited huge farms and small producers, talked to experts and people who have lived the coffee producers’ life for generations.
We will continue with our shooting schedule: we have still more dates in the Minas Gerais region and will also visit Santos, the biggest port in South America, where all that coffee production is sent abroad. The film will be ready by the end of May, when it will be screened in one of the most important coffee events in the world.
