Who ever thought sushi could be so interesting? Whether you like sliced raw fish or not, you got to hand it to the Japanese for how they prepare their meals. And Jiro Ono is the pinnacle of that precise perfection. The oldest 3 star Michelin chef in the world (at 85), his sushi restaurant starts its courses at $300 bucks a head (starts!). With some slick photography and some great tunes, Gelb does justice to Ono's work. But this intricate documentation of Ono's life, family and his passion shows more than just how that fish gets on to your table. It shows how a man, his past, and his passion can drive him to be the best at what he does. A very interesting documentary.
