The film tells the story of the likeable, magnetic, bodega owner Usnavi, who saves every penny from his daily grind as he hopes, imagines, and sings about a better life. Meanwhile, his tight-knit community faces gentrification while trying to better themselves and hold on to their cultures.

This documentary follows a group of older men in Italy who search for white Alba truffles, which can only be found with special skills passed down over the years and expertly trained dogs. The film captures a precarious ritual constantly threatened by greed and outside influences but still somehow protected by those clever, tight-lipped few who know how to unearth the magic within nature.
