Joseph, Marlvin, Pardon and Tinashe form a unlikely team of Zimbabwean refugees turned sommeliers, who turn the international wine establishment of privilege and tradition on its head in this inspiring documentary.

Having escaped starvation and tyranny in their homeland of Zimbabwe, the team of four have conquered the odds to become South Africa’s top wine tasters. Driven by relentless optimism, a passion for their craft and unshakeable national pride, they form Zimbabwe’s first ever wine tasting team and set their sights on the coveted title of ‘World Wine Tasting Champions’. From the moment they arrive in France to compete, this team of mavericks.

This full-bodied story is loaded with inspiration and leaves a long lasting satisfying taste well after the credits have rolled.

Wine Tasting Workshop

Join us for an exclusive wine tasting workshop with Pullo after the screening. We open a range of bottles to explore a region, style or theme. We’ll introduce 5 wines, taste and chat about them together. Some cheese & snacks will be provided, too. The tasting will typically take about 1.5 hours.
