EDOMAE is an epic documentary saga about the dying art form of traditional sushi that originated in Tokyo two-hundred years ago. EDOMAE sushi is equal parts cuisine and performance art, preserved today by the last remaining generation of “Samurai” chefs.
Performative and visually charged, EDOMAE showcases the stories of ten extraordinary Japanese artists and their obsessive quest to perfect their craft and preserve their rich heritage. Highlighting their individual life stories, their desire to impart Japanese culture and traditional sushi preparation to the western world and their unique approaches to culinary craftsmanship and performance, EDOMAE gives the audience an extravagant taste of a bygone era.
