No conversation this week, except for our host, Gil Roth, in conversation with some virtual memories of his own! On the occasion of going to the movies for the first time since 2018, to see Wim Wenders’ amazing new film Perfect Days (perfectdays-movie.jp/en/), he reflects on a cusp-of-pandemic trip to Japan. This one’s got Keith Haring (nakamura-haring.com/en/) & Koji Yakusho (perfectdays-movie.jp/en/yakusho/), a misplaced fortune, The Tokyo Toilet (tokyotoilet.jp/en/), an empty parking lot, Country & Western, a special 5K run, a big bag of Kit-Kats, and more, so give it a listen. • More info at chimeraobscura.com/vm/episode-578-japan • Support The Virtual Memories Show via patreon.com/vmspod and via our e-newsletter, https://buttondown.email/vmspod
