Days

About This Movie

So, 'Days' by Tsai Ming-liang is this really meditative piece. It’s all about silence and the weight of solitude. You’ve got Kang, this guy in a big empty house, and then there's Non, living in a cramped apartment. They cross paths, but it’s more about the space between them than anything else. The pacing is slow—almost languid, really—which might not be for everyone, but it creates this heavy atmosphere that feels genuine. The performances are understated, raw even, and you can just feel the longing and detachment. It’s distinct in how it captures the mundane moments without making them seem trivial, focusing on the details of daily life. It’s kind of a meditation on existence, you know?
