The film follows the daily routine of Hirayama (Yakusho Kōji), a middle-aged cleaner for The Tokyo Toilet company. He rises in his tiny apartment, lit in early morning purples and greens, gets a coffee from the vending machine opposite his door.

Review:
Rotten Tomatoes 96% An absorbing slice-of-life drama led by a remarkable Kôji Yakusho performance, Perfect Days adds a quietly soaring gem to director/co-writer Wim Wenders’ estimable filmography.
