Description

One of the most beloved documentaries in recent memory, Jiro Dreams of Sushi is a compelling portrait of renowned master sushi chef Jiro Ono, who at the age of 85 is as inspired and inspiring as ever in his pursuit of perfection. Jiro is the proprietor of Sukiyabashi Jiro, a three-star Michelin rated, 10-seat restaurant inauspiciously located in a Tokyo subway station. From his unparalleled success in the culinary world to his complicated relationship with his sons, this delectable film chronicles all aspects of Jiro’s life and craft in tantalizing style and detail.

In  Japanese with English subtitles.

Co-presented with Dish Cooking Studio and Good Food Toronto
