thinking about Wim Wenders' film, Perfect Days (2023), and how it walks the delicate line between (1) extolling the virtues of presence and attending to one's life with care and love, which can turn the most mundane of routines into joy and become our salvation, and (2) portraying how the architecture of a perfect routine and an existence seemingly shorn of the past can also be an illusion used to suppress or escape from things too painful to address

Perfect Days really does capture that intriguing tension between finding beauty in everyday life and the risk of using routine as a shield against deeper issues. It's fascinating how Wenders illustrates that while embracing the present can bring joy and fulfillment, it can also serve as a facade, hiding unresolved pain or past experiences. This duality makes us reflect on our own lives—how we might sometimes cling to routines that seem perfect, yet disguise our struggles. It’s a thoughtful reminder to find a balance between living fully in the moment and being honest about the past.
