Black Gold

I think this is the name of it. My boss recommended this documentary to me, and now I'm recommending it to you! Of course it will be depressing. It's about the corrupt coffee business in Africa, with workers who are practically enslaved by plantation owners they're paid so little. I guess it's sort of the real-life coffee equivalent of that DiCaprio movie "Blood Diamond." Perhaps you'll never take a sip of espresso again after watching it. Perhaps you'll quit your job. I haven't seen it yet, but it's on my Netflix list. que, queue?
