For this assignment, I chose to watch and analyze the documentary, Jiro Dreams of Sushi. The documentary is about an older gentleman who opened his own high-class sushi restaurant as a young man. He is very motivated to achieve perfection and works almost every day, making rare exceptions for holidays and attending funerals. The still photo I took from the movie, shows Jiro in an emotional state on the train, after answering a question. In this scene, Jiro tells the interviewer about leaving home at the age of 7 and never seeing his father again. Jiro is showing childhood pictures to the interviewer and the tone of his voice sets a very emotional mood in the scene. You can tell that leaving home at that age was a life changing experience for him and has likely shaped him into the father and man he is today. I found this documentary to be fascinating and I was amazed at how much love and hard work this man puts into his business.
