SAKE BOMB screens with When You Wish Upon a Star
1:00pm doors/1:30 pm show
A well-received road comedy having made its debut at the SXSW Film Festival earlier this year, Sake-Bomb follows Sebastian and his cousin Naoto as they travel from Los Angeles to Petaluma in search of Naoto’s long lost love. Sebastian (Eugene Kim), a sardonic Asian American twenty-something who is down and out after having just been dumped by his girlfriend and failing in his attempts to become a YouTube co- medic success, finds himself feeling obligated to assist the reserved, naive Naoto (Gaku Hamada), a native Japanese sake brewer, in his endeavors, acting as a guide for his cousin to the unfamiliar physical and social landscapes of California. Along the way, they inevitably encounter a unique cast of characters that collectively help turn their journey into one marked by introspection and, ultimately, personal growth. Amy Smith of The Austin Chronicle says, “[Junya] Sakino takes us on a funny, finely executed road trip of love, loss, and culture clashes...that is no ordinary journey.”
