Sushi Girl

Sushi Girl is a 2012 American crime film directed by Kern Saxton and starring Tony Todd, Mark Hamill, Noah Hathaway, Sonny Chiba and Cortney Palm.

In order to locate and divide the stolen diamonds, crime boss Duke (Tony Todd) invited Fish to dinner along with the rest of the gang, including his closest ally Crow (Mark Hamill), Max (Andy Mackenzie) and Francis (James Duval).

The sequences of torture are intercut with flashbacks to the heist, culminating in the gang being run off the road by another car, with Duke shooting the driver in order to escape.

A final flashback reveals that she was present at the heist's aftermath; it was her husband whom Duke shot, and she who recovered the diamonds after the bag was ripped open.

The production team behind Sushi Girl raised the money for the world premiere via crowdfunding site Kickstarter[5] and the film debuted at TCL Chinese Theatre on November 27, 2012.
