For Clara

2017, 28 minutes

For Clara is a Short Film that explores the topic of Organ Donation, and the selfless acts carried out by Andrew and his donor Clara.

"For Clara" is the story of Andrew, an 18-year-old who has received a heart transplant. His donor is a teenage girl, Clara, who was killed in a hit and run. He deals with the guilt that he is only alive because someone else is dead. While waiting for a heart, he became friends with another patient, Matt, who is still waiting for a liver transplant. We also see how the family of the donor deals with their loss, and hearing their daughter's heart beat again. The film focuses on all aspects of organ donation - those who have received transplants, those who are still waiting, and those who are mourning the loss of a donor.
