‘Plan 75’ Among IndieWire’s Best First Features of 2023

Wow PLAN 75 by Chie Hayakawa is among the 15 Best First Features of 2023 according to IndieWire!
 
Chie Hayakawa’s “Plan 75” is so powerfully sobering and sinisterly benign “Plan 75” because it’s willing to accept the killer’s premise. The scariest thing about this low-key Cannes breakout isn’t its familiar depiction of a society that privileges human output over human dignity, but rather its soft dystopian sketch of a society that’s able to soft-shoe around dehumanization and/or sell it as an act of grace.
