Plan 75

With a nod to the fabled Japanese practice of oyasute, which itself was rooted in Buddhist teachings, the film conjures a mythical modern Japan where an aging society has devised a plan to re-balance itself economically by informing its citizens older than seventy-five of the option of euthanasia. A 78-year-old woman faces the question of whether she should carry on or seemingly serve her society through self-sacrifice.
