THE MOVIE GUIDE
Perfect Days
drama
What it feels like
A carefully kept daily routine opens through small encounters. The film gives work, trees, music and silence enough time to become an absorbing inner landscape.
The catch
Its restrained, repetitive form can feel slow, and sadness remains beneath the calm.
- Attention
- Engaged: a little attention helps
- Pace
- Unhurried
- Overall tone
- Bittersweet or mixed
These are what.stream’s editorial assessments. Overall tone does not describe an ending or guarantee the absence of distressing material.
