With the largest population over the age of 75 and still growing, Japan implements a program to encourage its elderly citizens to make way for the younger generation. Plan 75 offers a stipend and support services for citizens of 75 years of age to choose assisted euthanasia. Plan 75 focuses on Michi (Chieko Baisho), a healthy 78-year-old, who finds herself financially struggling and wondering about her future. All around her Plan 75 advertises an option to "cash in and cash out" of her increasingly bleak situation. Will she choose Plan 75?
