Days

About This Movie

Days (2001) presents a deeply introspective look at the life of Claudio, a bank manager grappling with the mundane realities of living with HIV. The film's tone is somber yet contemplative, with a pacing that reflects Claudio's mechanical day-to-day existence. The atmosphere feels almost claustrophobic, capturing the weight of his illness and the stagnation of his relationship with Dario. The reintroduction of Andrea serves as a catalyst for change, igniting feelings long buried. Performances are understated but resonate, particularly as Claudio navigates his complex emotions. The film's distinctiveness lies in its raw, unfiltered portrayal of love, loss, and the search for connection amidst the shadow of illness.
