Japanese food as we never truly explored it is sublimed in this very passionate documentary. Beautifully shot to give its full meaning to the traditional Washoku, it captivates you all the way through. I really enjoyed listening to all those great chefs and learn so much about Japanese cooking but also culture. I you like eating good food and discover new tastes, this documentary is made for you and it will surely provoke a rush of hunger inside you. Where Jiro was a family story, Washoku goes far beyond to highlight the true and complete essence of Japanese cuisine. You will spend a wonderful moment and learn so much more than any other documentary about cooking that it becomes a must-see.

A beautiful movie about freedom, freedom of art, life outside of your home country. Refreshing and remarkably directed for a first movie. It is definitely a must-see in the world of indie gems. I watched when it was reelased in theaters in France and it is really one of the best film of the year. Actors are remarkable and some are very well-known (Brooke Bloom that had played in Angelina Jolie's movie or Anne Consigny who is a great French actress). I definitely recommend it to anyone who like those types of young movies that you watch with some mi of joy and soft melancholia. In the line of Frances Ha or 2 Days in Paris, that I had loved as well.
