About

A documentary about the French tea expert Olivier Schneider and his journey to the origins of his work in Asia's Golden Triangle. For Schneider, tea is not only something to drink but an artistic medium, a way to touch time, memory, culture and emotion. Between tea gardens, wide landscapes and morning mist, an attempt takes shape to transform leaves into an experience no money can buy and no language can fully describe. Its director and cinematographer is Luca Dylan Hartleib.
