All in This Tea is a documentary film from 2007. It was directed by Les Blank and Gina Leibrecht. This movie is all about Chinese tea and its amazing journey.
The film follows an American tea expert named David Lee Hoffman. He travels to far-off places in China where tea is grown. David wants to show tea farmers and sellers why things like fair trade are important. Fair trade means making sure workers are treated fairly. He also looks at how the land (called terroir) and organic growing methods affect tea. Organic means growing things without harmful chemicals. These ideas are key for making good tea and keeping the tea market healthy for the future.
