Wim Wenders’s masterpiece won three top awards including Best Director and Best Actor at last year’s Cannes Film Festival and was nominated for Best Foreign Film Oscar. Next to Poor Things, it was my favorite film of 2023. Featuring a breathtaking central performance by Yashuko Koji (Tampopo, Shall We Dance, Babel).

Hirayama works as a public toilet cleaner in Tokyo. He seems content with his simple life. He follows a structured everyday life and dedicates his free time to his passion for music and books. Hirayama also has a fondness for trees and photographs them. More of his past is gradually revealed through a series of unexpected encounters.  A deeply moving and poetic reflection on finding beauty and peace in the everyday world around us. 123 minutes. In English and Japanese, with English subtitles.
