Slow Time in Still Spaces - Days review by griggs

Spoiler Alert
18/07/2025


Days is so still, you might wonder if the disc has frozen. But no—its just Tsai Ming-Iain’s inviting you to sit, breathe, and stew in the silence. The long takes border on the hypnotic, though occasionally they drift into the soporific. It’s a tender film, full of small gestures and aching loneliness, culminating in a moment of human contact that’s quietly devasting. That said, the minimalism can feel more like an endurance test than enlightenment. I admired its patience more than I felt its puls. Meditative, yes—but perhaps a little too much incense and not enough fire.
