For Love's Sake

University student Shiori has a incredible palate for wine and dreams of studying winemaking in France. To her dismay she is assigned to a rural sake brewery for her internship. There she discovers the brewery’s owner is gravely ill and his son has little interest in the business. Can Shiori learn to appreciate sake and act as the spark to turn the brewery around?

Filmed entirely at one of Hiroshima’s most famous sake breweries, Kamoizumi Sake Brewery, the film is an uplifting romantic drama about falling in love with Japan’s most delectable fermented beverage.

A post-screening sake tasting will be hosted by The Sake Institute of Ontario
