In the future city of Submittan, people over 80 years old are forced into 'retirement' to a remote mountain area, as the city deals with increased population. The burden falls on the shoulder of an immigrant artist, who is tasked to design a propaganda poster to convince citizens of this new registration. Submittan by Susumu Kimura Connect with the Filmmaker: More About Submittan: SUBMITTAN is a story of Chase, a Japanese immigrant graphic designer and a single mother of two daughters, living in a future city called Submittan. She struggles to put food on the table, pay her rent, and find decent work. When an opportunity arises to enter a poster design competition for an ad agency, she jumps at the chance. With her finished poster in hand, Chase goes to a job interview. However deep inside, something is brewing; she knows what this poster implies, and how bad it is for the future of certain groups. Will she be able to realize her immoral decision and choose wisely Or will she have to sacrifice her principles for her family's survival When the truth is revealed, she cannot escape what happens.

Discrimination against the elderly is alive and well in todays society. When you get to my age, (82) that is when you see it. Not from everyone, but from some. There are several seniors living in my street, and we are regularly discriminated against by younger neighbours with their excessively noisy stereo's and cursing each other with the most obscene language outside their rental properties. It's almost as if they want to offend us. We come from a different era where this sort of behaviour was frowned on and Police would quickly put a stop to it. Nowadays, the Police are not interested.

What's in the mountain A crematorium.
I'm sure the WEF is working on this plan currently.
Thry just have to come up with a new thing to scare the world population with to get them to buy into it.
I watched a woman at Davos last week, one of the self proclaimed elites, talking about the need to reduce the global population to what it was 500 years ago.
That's 500 million. That's 6. 5 billion less than it is now. A lot of people to get rid of and there's no fair way of doing that only foul.
Klaus Schwab, son of NAZI and born under the swastika, is their leader.
You think they wouldn't do it

I'm 73, and my health is taking a downward turn. I can only speak for myself, but I don't want to be a burden on my family or society. When the situation gets bad, it would be nice to have a peaceful out option. But the society that claims it is modern will not give its people the freedom to leave. People suffering with many ailments are forced to stay far beyond what they would wish.
The idea of forcing people to leave might not be necessary if those with a clear view of reality were permitted to leave on their own terms.

I'm confused by this episode if I'm correct city government takes people to the mountain to be disposed of cause they are old but tell the public it's for retirement instead of a death sentence An hardly anyone questioned what happens nor are concerned It certainly seems those corporate types think it a joke of none importance maybe their parents aren't sent three or they when getting old

1984 is soon. none of you realize the ground work for this life has been in the works for 40 years. the young will not know the freedom we had. they will only know this. The funny thing is 2035 will be so close to this and there will be no turning back. at least I got to live as a Free American. from the 60's till now.
You blew it all up, Damn you. damn you all to Hell.

That short was amazing, so disheartening and moving. Like movies mentioned in the comments, it gave me that feeling, too. And just sad seeing how elderly folks were treated there, and are sometimes treated in life anyway. I was wishing the Mountain would actually be a nice place to stay, but I knew differently. :( Beautiful work!
reply

No one else felt super frustrated that this 'river' wasn't explained What is the river Is it a term used for their 'underground railroad' is it an alternative to the mountain, exclusive only to those who fit a certain criteria What saved it for me was how incredibly beautiful Mia Ando is on screen hahaha
reply

What did the siren indicate I assume the elderly were being cremated inside of the volcano With the siren a warning to employees and to those in the know it also indicated another seniors life had ended. Or am I just overthinking it, because my birthday is today 16: 49
reply

I married into a Japanese family. I understand that in a time of famine it wasn't just old people who were taken to the mountain but newborn children who couldn't be fed too. It goes against our instincts and must have been heartbreaking.
Great cinema. Thank You

reply

Beautifully played by Mia Ando, with so few words said but so much honest emotion expressed with her face and eyes. Great acting is about telling the truth with the character and she nailed this all the way through. Hope to see her star shine in the future.
reply

Thus is already happening. Segregation of the elderly. Not by force but by high property tax and having them move to elderly housing. 55 and older communities now( I know not all of them are bad)also dropping elderly benefits as well to survive.
reply

This is probably closer to truth than expected. I grew up in an America that was free, I'm not so sure what we have today or what will come in 12 years. The elites want you eating bugs and they don't care if you can afford a house, food or anything.
reply

I cried watching this, from the explanation of the poster onwards. There is something so powerful about this short and its commentary on aging, ageism, love, guilt and grief. Amazing job done by actors, writers, and everyone involved. Thank you.
reply

This was great. It would work well as a feature film or a limited series of maybe 6-8 episodes. Anything more would ruin it IMHO. Besides, streaming services have a bad habit of canceling shows after 1 or 2 seasons.
reply

The future is now! Read Population Matters magazine if you doubt this. The Elites want to determine who lives and who dies! For the good of the planet don't you know. Mean while they stay fat, wealthy, and with all powerful!
reply

Look what the New World Communist Order has in store for you who Question their unelected authority. Death in all its glory for 7. 5 billion Citizens of the world by the EVIL Psychopaths who run our beautiful Earth.
reply

Were I a billionaire, these people would have the funding to turn this into a feature length film by this time tomorrow. The best Dust film I've seen, period. Just brilliant in every respect.
reply

I watched my Uncle, more like my father, in hospice untill he died. Just give me the morphine until I flatline. It should be our right to die when you want, we know when our journey is over.
reply

Soylent green is people! lol
All those convenient sandwiches!
We all know what the mountain is really about but it would have been more powerful with some sort of reveal!

reply

A disturbing Echo of Logan's Run or Soylent Green. Very well made and evocative. An all to possible Future.
And the Lead Actress is a Stunningly Beautiful Woman.

reply

Very powerful short. The river will become a more structured option for the elderly in ageing societies over the next 20 years. ie. me. Take me to the river, drop me in the water
reply

Great film, thank you and congratulations to all involved. You packed more story into 15 minutes than most movies manage in two hours! Captivating performance by Mia Ando.
reply

I really would like to see the story told from the POV of an adult carrying their parent up the mountain. This is a HUGE storytelling opportunity.
reply

this reminded me of a modern take on Soylent Green except I assume they are being dropped into a live volcano, well done. I really like to see more.
reply

Did not feel like a short. It was so packed with content it felt feature length. Even the ending wrapped it all up nicely. I loved it to bits!
reply

Very powerful and consuming! Our Path to a Noble Future is dying of neglect.
Thank you for your hearts that yearn to end this devastating effect.

reply

Mia Ando's acting was very believable and well timed. This is quite a touching subject and it's very close to home. Well done!
reply

There is an older Japanese film about a medieval village where old people are taken to the mountain when they are a burden.
reply

Very good show. Good script. You can see this coming in the WEF's New World Order. Never give up your freedom! Fight!
reply

I am 71, feeling older, looking at a bleak future. Living in van. Little money. Your film mirrors my internal state.
reply

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand.
reply

. the long low huts, the train, the fire high in the background. enough said. wonderful short, thank you!
reply

This made absolutely no sense. Less than one minute of exposition could’ve made it so much better.
reply

Brilliant acting! Why is this actress not in mainstream movies! Phenomenal story well done by all!
