Discover new movies with our Movie Club series. In each episode, you will learn about a film in the library's collection, its cultural context, and what makes it noteworthy.
In this video, we will highlight the Japanese film Perfect Days (2023) in celebration of Japan's Golden Week. We will discuss how Wim Wenders's film about a bathroom cleaner depicts how someone lives a meaningful life. This video will connect Perfect Days to Japanese concepts such as "ikigai" and "mono no aware."
Movie Club will be released at 9:00 a.m. on our YouTube channel.
