Night on Earth (1991) Netflix UK

Night on Earth

Night on Earth is an anthology of five taxi rides in five cities on the same night, each offering a brief, intimate portrait of strangers meeting in the confined space of a cab. Directed by Jim Jarmusch, the film moves between Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Rome and Helsinki, using the taxi as a stage for encounters that range from comic to moving.

- Los Angeles: a Hollywood talent scout spots unexpected acting potential in a cab driver, but the driver is reluctant to trade a dependable life behind the wheel for show business. - New York: an immigrant driver struggles with loneliness and confusion as he navigates a city and culture that feel foreign to him. - Paris: a blind young woman and her Ivorian driver share a quietly humane conversation about sight, perception and life. - Rome: a loquacious cabbie picks up an ill passenger and overwhelms him with nonstop chatter. - Helsinki: after being laid off, an industrial worker and his coworkers ride through a bleak night, discussing the unfairness of love, work and mortality.

Together, the five vignettes paint a sympathetic, often witty snapshot of human connection, misunderstanding and compassion across different cities and social worlds.
