Director’s Notes
I made the film as a metaphor for what was gong on in my life at the time. It was my junior year of film school, and I had just started dating a girl that I had known since day one of freshman year. I began to dread the approach of winter break, as it would mean that I would have to cut short this new and exciting relationship. She would be flying off to study abroad in Paris, and I to Buenos Aires. “A Sushi Love Story” is a representation of this experience and how we decided to handle it, but I had only really lived up to the beginning of it. The ending of the film is what I hoped would happen in reality.
I hope to reach all young people that wish to take advantage of their youth and travel. My message to anyone that is in a relationship and about to study abroad is to allow yourself to fully engage with where you are. When you’re in another country, your head should be there too. If it’s meant to be, you’ll get back together and you’ll be better, more mature people.
