Kamome Diner [Japanese Film Festival]
(Japan, 2006, PG, 102 mins)
Presented in collaboration with the Japan Information and Cultural Centre and the Japan Foundation.
"The stunningly shot, über-stylish Kamome Diner, a tale of three Japanese women afoot in Helsinki, pays tribute to the quirky cinema of Finnish master Aki Kaurismäki... Sachie, from Japan, opens a Japanese eatery near the Helsinki harbour. The speciality of the house is onigiri rice balls. Her only customer, day after day, is a geeky Finnish boy obsessed with Japanese anime. Two other Japanese women, each with personal issues, begin helping out, and the number of customers increases. The diner, it seems, attracts only patrons with problems, all finding comfort in Sachie’s conversation and tasty cuisine.” - Cinematheque
