About the Movie:
The Tsukiji Market, which is called "Kitchen of Japan," is the biggest wholesale seafood market in the world. The market was built about 80 years ago and it continues to attract people throughout its rich history.
Fish and seafood from Tsukiji begins to color the Japanese tables and forms what is considered the backbone of Washoku, or Japanese cuisine. With an almost religious fervor, some of the country's best chefs come to Tsukiji to sample the latest tasty and exotic morsels, plucked from the sea that morning.
This film will show you the passion of people in Tsukiji and the important essence of Japanese traditional cuisine through interviews with vendors, plus commentary from food celebrities such as multi-Michelin-star chefs Jiro Ono and Rene Redzepi.
Tsukiji Wonderland is a sumptuous feast for sushi lovers everywhere and a rare glimpse of Japan's ancient legacy.
