How Do You See The World?
Why is it so difficult for some people to give so little and so easy for others to give so much? Abundant explores these questions by entering the world of extreme altruism: non-directed kidney donation. These rare individuals give kidneys away to complete strangers.
Through personal stories and interviews with nationally acclaimed experts, Abundant explores how our culture struggles with abundance and what we can do to become more altruistic as a community.
This insightful, inspiring documentary features live performance content from CrowdSource for Life and it’s cast of living kidney donors. Commentary from a wide variety of experts in abundance and high-profile activists from the kidney transplant/donation community expounds on how acts of altruism and abundance changes lives.
And, there’s a surprise as the film follows the unbelievable events that occurred as this cast of extreme altruists learned the art of storytelling to create an emotional and inspirational storytelling show.
