Synopsis:

“Ten Years,” a socially-conscious anthology film depicting various possible futures for Hong Kong, became a widely-discussed social phenomenon when it hit cinemas in 2015. The controversial omnibus has since transformed into the Ten Years International Project, a trans-border collaboration for which five fresh and gifted filmmakers, respectively in Japan, Thailand, and Taiwan, present visions for their own countries in 10 years time, utilizing their unique perspectives and diverse current and future concerns as departure points.

The project was announced at the 2017 Busan International Film Festival, drawing media attention from around the world.

“Ten Years Thailand,” for which Apichatpong Weerasethakul (“Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives”) is one of the participating directors, was selected by the Cannes Film Festival for its Special Screenings section, and is generating considerable international interest.

The Japanese edition, “Ten Years Japan” is executive-produced by one of the nation’s leading filmmakers, Hirokazu Kore-eda.

With his final approval, five up-and-coming Japanese filmmakers were chosen primarily for the quality of their screenplays, their originality, and their future prospects. They have conjured up five conceptions of what Japan might be like 10 years down the line.

Chie Hayakawa’s “PLAN 75” suggests a modern-day “The Ballad of Narayama,” in its depiction of people 75 and over being guided by the government toward euthanasia.

Yusuke Kinoshita’s “Mischievous Alliance” introduces children in a special school district, whose moral education is monitored closely by an artificial intelligence.

Megumi Tsuno’s “DATA” is the tale of a young woman living with her father who begins to explore her “inheritance”: her late mother’s personal data in digital form.

Akiyo Fujimura’s “The Air We Can’t See” delves into the relationship between a girl and her mother, who have been forced to live underground due to atmospheric pollution.

Finally, Kei Ishikawa’s “For Our Beautiful Country” paints a picture of a Japan in which a military draft system has been reintroduced.

早川千繪編導的 《75終老計劃》（Plan 75）無獨有隅是《楢山節考》未來版本，政府為解決高齡化問題推出政策勸誘75歲或以上長者接受安樂死；木下雄介的《惡作劇同盟》（Mischievous Alliance）內一家鄉村小學被規劃成人工智能監控特區，區內小朋友均被強制灌輸正確的社會德育課；津野愛的 《數碼遺產》（DATA）講述與父親相依為命的少女，在追憶亡母遺留下來的網上記錄時揭發一段不可告人的秘密；藤村明世在《無色的空氣》（The Air We Can't See）內描寫在地下城市內生活的女主角，好奇心驅使她對地面被污染的世界充滿憧憬；壓軸是導演石川慶的《美麗的國家》（For Our Beautiful Country）講述日本自二戰後重推全國徵兵制招攬年輕人入伍，軍國主義死恢復燃。
