SUMMARY:Perfect Days (JFT People's Choice Award screening)
DESCRIPTION:Perfect Days \nTuesday\, September 1\, 6:30PM (ET) \nDoors open 6:00PM | Film Screening | In-Person | JFT Event Hall \nDirected by Wim Wenders • 2023 • Drama  • 124 minutes • Presented in Japanese with English subtitles • Trailer  \nIn a world of fleeting moments\, find the beauty that lasts. \nA 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.  \nIn a radiant\, Cannes-award-winning performance of few words but extraordinary expressiveness\, YAKUSHO Kōji 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 OZU Yasujiro\, Wenders crafts a serenely minimalist ode to the miracle that is the here and now. \nPart 1 of our JFT People’s Choice Award screenings.

Upon graduating from the academy in 1971\, he founded\, together with fifteen other directors and authors\, the Filmverlag der Autoren\, a film distribution company for German auteur films\, which organized the production\, rights administration and distribution of their own independent films.
