Plan 75
Due to the country’s extreme ageing population, the Japanese government’s ‘Plan 75’ programme encourages seniors to have euthanasia. With the plan, the government is offering a comfortable last chapter of life with personal guidance towards the end point. The elderly Michi, pragmatic Plan 75 salesman Hiromu and Filipino caregiver Maria are each faced with the choice between life and death in their own way.
