A long-standing sake brewery in Kanazawa is in crisis. Sagara Shuichi, an elite banker, quits his job to save the family business and turns to legendary but harsh master brewer Washio Yusaku. Despite Yusaku’s uncompromising methods pushing the brewery deeper into debt, Shuichi perseveres alongside a group of misfit, —including his cousin Naoki, who have all taken refuge at the brewery. As they prepare the crucial daiginjo sake, an unexpected change unfolds that may decide the brewery’s fate. (Source: kisskh) Edit Translation

A beautiful setting, compelling subject matter - sake making. All told with artistic style & simplicity that the Japanese writers-directed have skillfully mastered - in 3eps!

Story: Man whose estranged from his marriage, life and family due to his corp stress job is jolted into chaos when it all comes crashing around him by death of his mother leaving the failing sake business to him for closure. Story is about the lives saved, changed while pursing the ultimate sake in a dying yet historic sake brewery as a sake master final masterpiece. Yes, there is competition but only to tighten the story not distract.

Actors: three main characters, son, old master and young man are the chief story drivers but so are the other brewery workers all with compelling lost soul-purpose persons.

Scenery of rural Japan, the intricate steps of brewing sake which is used metaphorically to explain life's chaotic journey made this one my favorite movies. This movie is well paced & well done, is it for you? Now to find and taste more sake.
