Outdoor Movie Screening: East Side Sushi

Outdoor Movie Screening: East Side Sushi is part of the Adams Morgan Movie Nights series, a beloved community tradition that brings neighbors and visitors together under the stars for free outdoor film screenings. This year’s theme, “Adams Morgan Movie Nights Is Revolting: Celebrating 250 Years of Revolutionary Thinking and Pulling for the Underdog,” frames the selection of the dramedy East Side Sushi, a story about an underdog sushi chef. The screening takes place on the scenic soccer field at Marie Reed Recreation Center, located near the corner of 18th Street and California Street, NW. Attendees are encouraged to pack a picnic, grab takeout from a favorite neighborhood spot, and bring a blanket to settle in for the evening showing.
