Jiro Dreams of Sushi

Friday, Sept. 28 & Saturday, Sept. 29 • 7 pm | Sunday, Sept 30 • 3 pm 

This is the story of 85-year-old Jiro Ono, considered by many to be the world’s greatest sushi chef, and the proprietor of Sukiyabashi Jiro, a 10-seat, sushi-only restaurant inauspiciously located in a Tokyo subway station. Despite its humble appearances, his is the first restaurant of its kind to be awarded a prestigious three-star Michelin Guide rating, and sushi lovers from around the globe make repeated pilgrimages, calling months in advance and shelling out top dollar for a coveted seat at Jiro’s sushi bar.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi is a thoughtful and elegant meditation on work, family, and the art of perfection, chronicling Jiro’s life as both an unparalleled success in the culinary world and as a loving yet complicated father. Japan 2011; 81 minutes; Japanese with English subtitles; Rated PG.
