Watch this movie if you’re inches away fom jumping from a bridge
Saw this last year—ended up watching it two more times. This slow burn, quiet comfort film never fails to resonate a different kind of emotion each time. It takes you into Hirayama’s daily routine of cleaning toilets, a chore so mundane shot in bursts of (the main character’s) melancholic sighs of regret and darted stares at public comfort room walls.
Despite that, it somehow sucks you in. A slow character development ensues in his calmness.
As he turns cleaning toilets into a thoughtful meditation. The best parts of the movie are his collections of cassette tapes he plays on his way home mirroring his mood for the day.

This movie will make you rethink your life choices and question the more important things in life. Full of emotional realism, it not only reflects a common life but mirrors it’s complexities.”
Best Lines: “The world is made up of many worlds; some are connected, and some are not.” – Hiyama
