Heads Up: Black Coffee Documentary
Wow! Who says summer television isn't engaging. TVO replayed the three-part documentary this past week, Black Coffee. Here's a blurb from the site:
BLACK COFFEE is a three-hour documentary series that traces the unique and volatile history of coffee. From its discovery on an ancient Ethiopian hillside to its role as a contemporary elixir, coffee has dominated and molded the economies, politics and social structures of entire countries. Coffee’s history is rife with controversy and paradox. It has been banned as an instigator of revolution, yet lies at the heart of the democratic tradition in Costa Rica.
Not sure if TVO will run it again (check The View From Here) but I'm sure you can find it in your local video store. This documentary will make you pause the next time you order a latte.
