While you can\u2019t generally taste a movie and since speed does not count (unless the picture is a turkey), originality is prized by all those (meaning people of mature taste) who do not want to see the same plot over and over.\u00a0 \u201cEast Side Sushi\u201d is a prime example of an original. While this is not the only movie about Japanese cooking\u2014there is David Gelb\u2019s \u201cJiro Dreams of Sushi, a documentary about the 85-year-old master chef considered the master of the art form in Japan\u2014\u201cEast Side Sushi\u201d may be only secondarily about the joys of raw fish but principally about a trajectory followed by Juana (Diana Elizabeth Torres) undergoing a tough stretch of life as a single mother in East Oakland who is fed up working a fruit cart and has higher horizons.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Torres gives a terminally charming performance, one which should be remembered at awards time when hopefully enough critics and other groups have been able to see this remarkable indie.\u00a0 Torres inhabits the role of Juana, who contrary to what Donald Trump says about people of Mexican extraction gets up at three in the morning, buttons up her small daughter Lydia (Kay Jade Aguirre), moves out of her digs with her dad Apa (Rodrigo Duarte Clark) and heads for the earning morning fruit market to pick up mangos, pineapples, and other edibles even insisting on using fresh-squeezed limes rather than the bottled kind as she apparently respects every food item she prepares.<\/p>\n<p>Fed up with the routine, particularly after being mugged and beaten and freed from the day\u2019s take, she spots a sign on the window of a Japanese restaurant, \u201cHelp Wanted,\u201d but her ambition to become a chef, in this case a molder of sushi, seems impossible as it\u2019s as difficult for a woman, especially a Latino, to land a job with a boss that says his customers demand authenticity.\u00a0 While she works in the kitchen washing dishes, she befriends Aki (Yutaka Takeuchi), one of the three chefs, and shows him what she can do with a rolling kit.\u00a0 As Aki encourages Juana, even letting her out of the kitchen into the sushi floor though her dream is pushed aside by boss Mr. Yoshida (Roji Oyama). \u201cYou are hired to work in the kitchen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maybe Juana really knows how to make the dishes that would take a normal person years to perfect.\u00a0 As Martin Rosenberg\u2019s camera closes in on the rice, the fish, the seaweed and the delicate but sure hands that combine the ingredients, we in the audience would not be blamed for watching our mouths water for a taste of Rock \u2018n\u2019 Roll, Unagi Avocado, California, and assorted alimentation made with tuna and salmon and halibut and red snapper.<\/p>\n<p>Torres, who resembles a young Salma Hayek (take a look at Hayek and Torres on the IMDB and you\u2019ll be stunned by the similarities), carries the movie with an appeal that could warm up a cold cheese enchilada or turn a sashimi into a grilled, Seattle salmon.\u00a0 She is ably assisted by Yutaka Takeuchi, whose character could be her future husband, Rodrigo Duarte Clark as her hard-working dad, and bubbly Kaya Jade Aguirre as her young and sleepy daughter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unrated.\u00a0 107 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Story \u2013 B+<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Acting \u2013 A-<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Technical \u2013 B+<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Overall \u2013 B+<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ess.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ess.jpg\" alt=\"ess\" width=\"600\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-154607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ess.jpg 1296w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ess-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ess-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1296px) 100vw, 1296px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EAST SIDE SUSHI Cinequest Reviewed by: Harvey Karten for Shockya.
