Synopsis:

Black Gold – Black Gold, wake up and smell the coffee.

As westerners revel in designer lattes and cappuccinos, impoverished Ethiopian coffee growers suffer the bitter taste of injustice. In this eye-opening expose of the multi-billion dollar coffee industry, Black Gold traces one man’s fight for a fair price.

This is one of the most important films around Coffee, Fairtrade, and Starbucks.
