Japanese Film Night - Tampopo

Come along to our free Japanese Film night!

This month's film is "Tampopo"!

An enigmatic ramen connoisseur helps a ramen-making widow, Tampopo, on her quest for the perfect recipe. But this film isn’t just about making and eating a bowl of noodles, it’s about everything—culture, politics, social order, and family and belonging. Tampopo serves up a savoury broth of culinary adventure seasoned with offbeat comedy and sensuous romance.

It’s sweet, sexy, surreal, and mouth-watering; it’s about living life to the fullest.
