Trifole

In Italy’s Piedmont region, the rare white truffle hides deep in the forests around Alba. Igor, an aging truffle hunter, faces failing health and vanishing woodlands while struggling to keep pace with the modern truffle market. Into his quiet, tradition-bound world comes Dalia, his 28-year-old granddaughter from London, disconnected from her roots and searching for direction. Tasked with caring for him, their awkward reunion softens as she’s drawn into his passion for truffle hunting—and his world.When an accounting oversight threatens Igor’s home, Dalia embarks on a quest to find a legendary lightning-struck truffle that could save everything. Guided by Igor’s notes and his faithful dog, Birba, she ventures into a magical forest, confronting rival hunters, unexpected danger, and her own awakening sense of purpose. Set against the earthly beauty of Piedmont’s autumn woods and the delirium of Alba’s centuries-old truffle fair, Trifole is a fantastical and profound adventure about family, tradition and finding one’s place in the world. From filmmaker Gabriele Fabbro, one of MovieMaker Magazine’s 2022 screenwriters to watch, and co-written by rising star Ydelie Turk, Trifole stars Italian screen legends Umberto Orsini (Luchino Visconti’s The Damned) and Margherita Buy, seven-time David di Donatello Award-winner.
