Plots(1)
These futuristic shorts, reminiscent of a Japanese version of Black Mirror, include a future Japan plagued by pollution and an ageing population; a society where morality and personal history are manipulated by technology,; a world in which a.i. takes over the management of child rearing and education; a post-apocalyptic future where underground living is the norm; and a nation overshadowed by the spectre of war. Showcasing the talents of five filmmakers who are true talents-to-watch. Ten Years Japan is an honest, dark, and revolutionary look at what the future may hold. (Hawaii International Film Festival)
