ABOUT THE FILM
Director Penny Lane’s decision to become a “good Samaritan” by giving one of her kidneys to a stranger turns into a funny and moving personal quest to understand the nature of altruism. Confessions of a Good Samaritan is a provocative inquiry into the science, history, and ethics of organ transplantation, asking an ancient question in a whole new way: Who is your neighbor, and what do you owe them?
Penny Lane’s charming wit and inventive documentary skills return to One Take after her previous hits Nuts! and Hail Satan?
Penny will join us for a live, virtual Q&A following the Thursday, July 18 screening.
