Perfect Days (PG) | Dir. Wim Wenders | 2023 | Japan | 124 mins | IMDb 7.9 | Subtitles

Perfect Days, suggested by a member, charmed our committee with its gentle, life affirming tale of a Japanese cleaner finding the perfect in the simple routine of every day. Legendary German director Wim Wenders’s quietly profound movie follows the life of a man satisfied with living in the now and watching Komorebi, the play of sunlight through the leaves. Oscar nominated.

Hirayama cleans public toilets in Tokyo, lives his life in simplicity and daily tranquility. Some encounters also lead him to reflect on himself.
