The Buenos Aires Planetarium becomes a One-Night Cinema with a free screening of “Perfect Days” this weekend
This last weekend of January marks the start of an outdoor series that brings cinema to the squares and parks of Buenos Aires. The first screening is on January 30 at 9 p.m. at the Galileo Galilei Planetarium.
That’s right, the Planetarium becomes a cinema with a giant screen so you can watch movies outdoors under the stars. The first film in the series that you will see this Saturday, January 30, at the Buenos Aires Planetarium is Perfect Days, directed by Wim Wenders, set in Japan and with the special touch of this long-standing German director, which was released in theaters in 2023.
The film, a co-production between Japan and Germany, follows the story of Hirayama, a man who finds beauty in daily routines and small gestures. After its release, Perfect Days became one of Wim Wenders’ most celebrated works in recent years.
