A family gathers in a hospital room where their daughter lies brain dead, the car accident that killed her leaving her organs viable for transplant. Through grief unimaginable, they face a question: will they donate her organs so others might live? A man on dialysis waits for a kidney, his name on a list of thousands, the call that would change his life not yet coming. He wonders if he will live long enough to receive the gift he needs. A woman donates a kidney to a stranger, the altruistic choice meaning surgery and risk for herself but life for someone she's never met.
