Story of...Coffee

About This Movie

So, 'Story of...Coffee' is a doc that kind of takes you on this winding journey through the history of coffee. It dives into its origins in Africa, and you really get a sense of how this simple bean transformed cultures worldwide. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it feels intentional, like you're sipping a brew slowly while soaking up the stories. They showcase various brewing methods, which is cool. The visuals are pretty striking, especially when they contrast the early methods with today’s artisan practices. There's a certain warmth in the narrative that pulls you in, even if the director remains unknown. It’s that mix of history and personal anecdotes that gives it a unique atmosphere. Worth a look for any true coffee enthusiast, I’d say.
