This is not a food movie, but a movie that concentrates on minimalism. It is only for sushi, a simple food. Why can there be so much to say? It was achieved through outrageous calculations and deliberation, and it was the ultimate perfection of the details of a single transaction. In addition to the Japanese, Steve Jobs was also an advocate of minimalism. Apple changed the world, but minimalism also made him exhausted.

To be perfect, minimalism needs to ignore the cost of time, and time is the most precious wealth in the world. It is doomed that minimalism can only appear in countries with extremely high per capita wealth, like Japan, a small developed country isolated in backward Asia. There is this razor-sharp drive to pursue quirky minimalism.

In the noisy and noisy modern society, minimalism has a Zen sense of purifying the soul and is highly respected by tired urbanites, but minimal waste of time, human and material resources is huge, minimal waste is in the dark, minimal The complicated waste is in the bright spot, and it is a distortion of nature. We cannot forget that because of some brilliant humanistic feelings in Japan and the United States, for the modern people who have been stimulated too much, the real spiritual salvation is nature.
