- TriviaThe nine public toilets featured in the movie were built to help welcome visitors to Japan as part of the planned Summer Olympics in 2020. As the pandemic delayed the Olympics, Koji Yannai, a senior executive for Fast Retailing (known for its Uniqlo brand) sought a way to still make the toilets known internationally, contacted several screenwriters and advertisers, leading to the idea of having a well-known film director produce a documentary about these toilets. Given an invitation to produce the documentary, Wim Wenders decided to make a feature instead.
- GoofsAt 1:06, as Hirayama approaches bookstore on his bike, he is seen wearing running shoes and his sleeves rolled down. When he enters the bookstore, he's sleeves are rolled up which he rolls down. And he is wearing rain boots.
Featured review
It's a movie about mundane life, in different ways. While watching this movie you might think, where is this story going? Is something happening? Will his routine fall apart? Is he meeting someone? Maybe, maybe not...
The story will make you conscious about simple things in your daily life. Those activities can be happy, a little sad or unexpected. It's all about your own perception.
Overall, this movie was relaxing to experience and eye-opening in an interesting way. When I walked out of the cinema and looked around it made me feel very privileged about life. Every person experiences satisfactions in their own way. If you are a homeless, disabled, a CEO, a toiler-cleaner, happiness finds its way.
