Tartufo is the hilarious tale of a crumbling Italian village where tourists only stop in to ask for directions. Little do the villagers know that the local truffle hunter has discovered a massive truffle, potentially worth six figures, with the power to either be the greatest gift or the foulest curse the village has ever seen.
