A nighttime taxi ride through five cities where strangers meet—and stay just long enough to change each other's world for a moment.

Spanning across five cities and time zones, Night on Earth follows a series of taxi rides that play out in real time. Jim Jarmusch bases the film on conversations—alternately comedic, awkward, and revealing—between drivers and passengers who temporarily share the same space. With actors such as Winona Ryder, Gena Rowlands, and Roberto Benigni, each segment takes on its own tone within a clear, repetitive structure. The film's strength lies in its simplicity: an observation of fleeting encounters that exposes both distance and connection.
