Filmfest: BURGUNDY

About the Film

Documentary | 90 MIN | France

In French with English subtitles

From the team that brought you the multi-award-winning documentary films THE TRUFFLE HUNTERS (2020) and GAUCHO GAUCHO (2024) comes BURGUNDY, an incisive and yet often dream-like exploration into one of the world’s most famous wine regions. The film’s playful, often dream-like blend of documentary and fiction explores the region’s exclusive wine culture, where generations of inherited tradition live on in rituals its devotees are passionate about. While paying homage to the remarkable characters whose dedication to the finest wine and food defines the region, filmmakers Dweck and Kershaw also introduce us to those with aspirations in viticulture who question whether centuries of tradition can carry it into the future.
