"Donner/Recevoir", documentary by Bernard Dal Molin and Michèle Dal Molin (2013)

It's not always easy to give, and it's always difficult to receive. This film presents the life stories of 4 families who have been confronted with the issues of organ donation and transplantation. At the heart of each story is the thought process leading up to the decision, rather than the medical dimension. With humility and a great deal of generosity, the characters reveal the suffering, feelings and happiness that surrounded these exceptional moments.

Running time: 1 h 15 min
