Perfect Days
简介
From American road trips to modern dance and the pope, German director Wim Wenders’ films are nothing if not eclectic, and his latest inspiration is Tokyo’s public toilets.
His new project, called “The Tokyo Toilet”, who inspired him to make the film featuring four short stories and starring actor Koji Yakusho as a cleaner.
“I love architecture. In another life, I’d certainly want to be an architect,” Wenders said.
He said he is particularly happy to be working with renowned architect Tadao Ando, 80, whose gleaming circular toilet has thin slats that let in fresh air as people wash their hands.
“I was so glad when I saw his toilet the other day, and saw how he worked with the light… I thought, ‘this is a precious place’.”
