Humane

“Dying makes all the difference in the world.”

After an environmental collapse, the government has ordered humanity to lose a fifth of its population, and a new euthanasia program is taking volunteers. Jared York (Jay Baruchel) invites his grown children and his wife Rachel (Emily Hampshire) to one family dinner, where he plans to announce he's signing up. Caitlin Cronenberg's debut feature sets a household's love for each other against a world that has begun counting how many people it can afford to keep.
