This hour long documentary on the making of the low-budget indie film "Sushi Girl" astutely captures the incredibly frantic stress and pressure intrinsic to shooting a movie on a super tight budget and schedule in which a little thing like a helicopter flying overhead can briefly bring production to a grinding halt. Moreover, it's a real treat to see such consummate pro veteran actors as Tony Todd and Mark Hamill strut their stuff in front of the camera. Better still, this documentary thankfully keeps the usual talking heads format to a refreshing minimum to focus instead on the basic logistics of making a movie. One really gets a strong sense of all the sweat, blood, and hard work that goes into bringing a motion picture into being from watching this documentary. Recommended viewing for fans of the film.
