Leave your preconceptions about human organ trafficking at the door. Emmy-award-winning director Ric Esther Bienstock takes you on a ride that you won't soon forget. Though selling a kidney or any other organ is illegal everywhere but Iran, the law effectively condemns potential donors to a life of poverty and potential recipients to an early death. For the first time, meet the entire cast of a single illicit transplant operation – doctors, broker, donor and patient.
