Daily Telegraph (UK)
Rating: 4/5 --
The film simultaneously underlines its own artifice while inviting us to enjoy the delightful absurdity of a rarefied global culture based on the misadventures of eccentrics digging bits of fungus out of the ground.

CineVue
The deep respect for nature runs through the film, lending a Malick-y vibe, and a beautiful soundtrack. Much to ponder.

What She Said
4 stars out of 4 -- A delectable mix of foodie obsession, fabulous canines, precariously piquant European culture and aspirational connoisseurship infuses THE TRUFFLE HUNTERS.
Washington Post
Rating: 3/5 --
Its gnarled, subterranean subject may be shrouded in a biblical halo, but The Truffle Hunters sublime focus on the natural world and both its flora and fauna inhabitants offers calming reassurance for the unwashed.

This is directed by Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw and, visually, it is magnificent, with every scene framed like a gorgeous painting.

The Spectator
Like the gastronomic delicacy that can neither be replaced nor cultivated, the film from co-directors Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw oozes a cinematic perfume both delightful and distinctive.
Variety
Product Description:
This documentary spotlights the unique bond between aging truffle hunters and their dogs in the picturesque forests of Piedmont, Italy. The 70-year-old hunters pursue the rare and expensive white Alba truffle, a gourmet ingredient that can fetch hefty sums at auctions, partly because of their refusal to impart their expertise to a new generation. Directed and produced by Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw.
