Days

About

Typical of slow cinema and many Tsai films, Days is minimalist, slowly paced, and features little dialogue, without subtitles. Lee Kang-sheng plays Kang, and Non is portrayed by Anong Houngheuangsy, a Laotian immigrant to Thailand in his first film role. Days was selected to compete for the Golden Bear in the main competition section at the 70th Berlin International Film Festival, where it won the Teddy Award. The film follows Kang, a middle-aged man who lives alone, and Non, a younger massage worker. Their lives briefly intersect when Kang receives a massage from Non, gives him a music box, and shares a meal with him. They later return to their separate routines, with Non playing the music box alone on a noisy street while Kang tends to his fish at home. (source: wikipedia)
