"DON D'ORGANES: LA VIE CONTINUE"

Every year, around 1,000 people in Quebec are waiting for an organ transplant. But less than half of them will receive the precious gift that could save them from a predicted death. Why is this so? A number of ethical, bureaucratic, medical and human obstacles stand in the way of organ donation. The documentary aims to illustrate them, and to take us right to the beginning of the chain, with the donors, their families and the hospital staff who accompany them through these painful moments.

Val

For over 40 years Val Kilmer, one of Hollywood’s most mercurial and/or misunderstood actors has been documenting his own life and craft through film and video. He has amassed thousands of hours of footage, from 16mm home movies made with his brothers, to time spent in iconic roles for blockbuster movies like Top Gun, The Doors, Tombstone, and Batman Forever. This raw, wildly original and unflinching documentary reveals a life lived to extremes and a heart-filled, sometimes hilarious look at what it means to be an artist and a complex man.

Desperate Measures

San Francisco police officer Frank Connor is in a frantic search for a compatible bone marrow donor for his gravely ill son. There's only one catch the potential donor is convicted multiple murderer Peter McCabe who sees a trip to the hospital as the perfect opportunity to get what he wants most: freedom. With McCabe's escape, the entire hospital becomes a battleground and Connor must pursue and, ironically, protect the deadly fugitive who is his son's only hope for survival.
