What Kamome Diner Is About
Kamome Diner (original title Kamome Shokudo), directed by Naoko Ogigami and adapted from Yōko Mure's novel, is a Japanese film about a Japanese woman who opens a diner serving onigiri in Helsinki, and the friendships she builds with the locals after a long stretch with no customers. The film was shot at a real café in Helsinki's Punavuori district; after filming, a restaurant called Ravintola Kamome opened in the same location and became a draw especially for Japanese tourists. The film, a low budget independent production, spread by word of mouth in limited release and became a surprise box office success in Japan that year. Who it's for: anyone curious about a Japanese woman opening an onigiri diner in Helsinki, a film whose filming location later became a real restaurant. Who it's not for: viewers looking for a fast paced, plot heavy film, since this relies on a calm, observational pace.
