Perfect Days

22 – 28 March, 2024
Nominated for Best International Feature Film at the 2024 Oscars, the highly anticipated return to fiction feature filmmaking from Wim Wenders (Paris, Texas, Wings of Desire ) takes the seasoned writer-director to Tokyo to tell a story celebrating the hidden joys and minutiae of Japanese culture.
In a deeply moving performance that won the Best Actor award at Cannes, Koji Yakusho (Babel, 13 Assassins ) stars as Hirayama, a contemplative man who lives a life of modesty and serenity, spending his days balancing his job as a dutiful caretaker of Tokyo’s numerous public toilets with his passion for music, literature and photography. As we join him on his structured daily routine, a series of unexpected encounters gradually begin to reveal a hidden past that lies behind his otherwise content and harmonious life.
