Devour! Opening Gala Film Presented by CBC: Jiro Dreams of Sushi curated by Sam Kass (the former White House chef and senior policy adviser for nutrition in the Obama administration)
We are delighted to host Chef Sam Kass as our official Opening Night Gala Guest Curator. He will be interviewed by returning festival host, Bob Blumer, following the screening and will also sign copies of his new cookbook, Eat a Little Better: Great Flavor, Good Health, Better World.
The Opening Night Gala film, Jiro Dreams of Sushi directed by David Gelb, will be preceded by two short films, the yet-to-be-announced winner of this year’s winner of the Nourish Nova Scotia Food & Film Challenge and Nova Scotia directed by The Perennial Plate.
Jiro Dreams of Sushi: 85-year-old Jiro Ono is considered by many to be the world’s greatest sushi chef. He is the proprietor of Sukiyabashi Jiro, a 10-seat, sushi-only restaurant inauspiciously located in a Tokyo subway station.. 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.
