Perfect Days is a luminous reflection on the beauty found in everyday life. Winner of the Best Actor award at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, Koji Yakusho stars as Hirayama, a contemplative middle-aged 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.
Featuring an unforgettable soundtrack of classic Rock and pop, this is a tender, shimmering and ultimately life-affirming marvel.
