The Miami Film Festival presents the psychological thriller “Transplant” at 9 p.m. Thursday, April 10th.
A motivated surgical resident pushes himself to extreme lengths while training under a legendary heart transplant surgeon obsessed with protecting his perfect reputation.
Like the medical world version of Damien Chazelle’s “Whiplash,” “Transplant” is about a mentor-mentee relationship that gets pushed to dangerous levels. Filmmaker Jason Park tackles themes such as ambition – and the way our family dynamics shape that very ambition – and what happens when one’s moral compass collides with ruthless determination.
When other people’s lives hang in the balance, how does that affect one’s decisions and actions? The film asks tough questions, while at the same time operating like a fast-paced thriller that consistently keeps the audience on their toes.
Tickets are $15.50 for the general public and $14.50 for students, military and seniors (62+) with ID. Click on the link above.
