An Ivory Coast Cocoa Farmer Gets His Very First Taste of Chocolate







Here is how MetropolisTV, a global collective of young filmmakers and TV producers coming out of Holland, sets up their touching video:


Farmer N’Da Alphonse grows cocoa [in the Ivory Coast] and has never seen the finished product. “To be honest I do not know what they make of my beans,” says farmer N’Da Alphonse. “I’ve heard they’re used as flavoring in cooking, but I’ve never seen it. I do not even know if it’s true.”



It’s great — and yet, in its own way, sad — to watch his face light up as he gets his very first taste…
