Directed by Wim Wenders (Japan, Germany, 2024, 123 min.). Japanese with English subtitles.
Helmed by Wim Wenders (Wings of Desire; Paris, Texas) with a screenplay by Wenders and Takuma Takasaki, Perfect Days is a lyrical portrait tracing the daily movements of a man named Hirayama (Kōji Yakusho; Tampopo, Shall We Dance). Deeply content with his life as a toilet cleaner in Tokyo, Hirayama also cherishes music on cassette tapes, books, and photographing trees. Through unexpected encounters, he reflects on finding beauty in the world.
“Wim Wenders’s gentle Japanese character study is his best narrative film in decades … sincere and unassuming.” —Variety
