Watch Official Trailer:
Description:
The trailer begins quietly, with soft sunlight filtering through the leaves of a tree-lined Tokyo street. We see Hirayama, a reserved and meticulous middle-aged man, starting his day. Gentle acoustic guitar music accompanies his morning routine: cleaning public restrooms, tending to the plants, and riding his bicycle through the bustling city.
A voiceover softly begins: “Sometimes, it’s the smallest things that bring us the greatest joy.”
Quick glimpses reveal Hirayama’s life—simple yet profoundly intentional. He watches the changing seasons, listens to the sounds of nature, and finds comfort in the rhythm of his work. Moments of quiet introspection are punctuated by his warm interactions with strangers, fleeting smiles, and kind gestures.
The tone deepens as the music shifts slightly, introducing hints of melancholy. We see Hirayama encountering people from his past and moments that hint at a life once lived differently. Questions linger in the air: What brought him to this life? What does he carry in his heart?
The visuals highlight contrasts:
- The bustling vibrancy of Tokyo against Hirayama’s serene solitude.
- A chance encounter that sparks reflection.
- Memories that resurface, bringing both pain and beauty.
The trailer crescendos with a montage of Hirayama embracing life’s imperfections: standing in the rain, marveling at a flock of birds, and quietly smiling as he gazes at the night sky.
The final frame shows Hirayama walking down a quiet street at sunset, his silhouette blending into the golden light. The screen fades to the title: Perfect Days.
Tagline: “Sometimes, it’s in the ordinary that we find the extraordinary.”
