Perfect Days Synopsis

Hirayama (Kôji Yakusho) is a cleaner of public toilets in Tokyo. He lives alone in a small house full of plants, his days going by according to quiet rhythms that never seem to change. His is a neighborhood of tiny cafés frequented by the same people, of bookshops that sell works by Patricia Highsmith or young, contemporary Japanese writers.

Hirayama speaks very little, but he has a great passion for music, books, and the trees he loves to photograph. His days going by in endless monotony, that is, until his niece, who has run away, comes to stay with him. Her presence brings joy to his life and opens up his eyes to others around him.
