Perfect days [videorecording] / Neon and Koji Yanai present ; a Master Mind production ; in collaboration with Spoon and Wenders Images ; produced by Koji Yanai ; producers, Wim Wenders, Takuma Takasaki ; written by Wim Wenders, Takuma Takasaki ; directed by Wim Wenders.
A perfect song that hits at just the right moment, the play of sunlight through leaves, a fleeting moment of human connection in a vast metropolis: the wonders of everyday life come into breathtaking focus in this profoundly moving film by Wim Wenders. In a radiant, Cannes-award-winning performance of few words but extraordinary expressiveness, Koji Yakusho plays a public-toilet cleaner in Tokyo whose rich inner world is gradually revealed through his small exchanges with those around him and with the city itself. Channeling his idol Yasujiro Ozu, Wenders crafts a serenely minimalist ode to the miracle that is the here and now.
