Perfect Days, directed and co-written by Wim Wenders, delivers an absorbing slice-of-life drama propelled by the remarkable performance of Kôji Yakusho. Set in Tokyo, the film follows Hirayama, a toilet cleaner content with his simple life. Immersed in his love for music, books, and photography, Hirayama’s structured routine is disrupted by unexpected encounters that gradually unveil his intriguing past. Wenders’ skillful storytelling adds another quietly soaring gem to his esteemed filmography.
“Wenders taps into a precious cinematic paradox: We viewers escape our lives to be mindful inside someone else’s.” - Chance Solem-Pfeifer, Willamette Week
“The Japanese word 'komorebi' refers to sunlight shimmering through leaves. Hold that calming thought and behold how beautifully it is expressed in Perfect Days, the glorious new film by Wim Wenders.”
- Peter Howell, Night Vision
“Wenders' film is ultimately about the mundane patterns that make a life worth living.”
- Margot Harrison, Seven Days (VT)
