Udon (Japan), 2006
Synopsis: A hilarious and heartwarming family drama about family, life, and that perfect bowl of Udon.
Kosuke, the son of an udon shop owner, is from a tiny rural town in Kagawa prefecture (Japan) known for its Udon noodles. Kosuke, however, is sick of his hometown, sick of Udon, and more importantly sick of his imperious father.
He decides to try his luck in New York City, only to return six years later as a debt-ridden disappointment. Once back at home, he finds nothing has changed: his big sister still worries about him, his father is still pounding and making Udon, his friends are all the same.
Kosuke then meets a clumsy food columnist Kyoko, and the two happen upon a bowl of delicious Udon noodles that changes their lives and their fortune.
It is a raucous ride as we see Kosuke achieve a realization that the very thing and the person he hates are the very things in life that he loves the most.
