Perfect Days
Monday, September 16 – 2.00 pm and 7.30 pm
at Hudson Village Theatre
Hirayama seems utterly content with his simple life as a cleaner of toilets in Tokyo. Outside of his very structured everyday routine he enjoys his passion for music and for books. And he loves trees and takes photos of them. A series of unexpected encounters gradually reveal more of his past. A deeply moving and poetic reflection on finding beauty in the everyday world around us. An absorbing slice-of-life drama led by a remarkable Kôji Yakusho performance. Oscar nominated, Perfect Days adds a quietly soaring gem to director/co-writer Wim Wenders’ estimable filmography.
