Dying to Live (2018 film)

Dying to Live (2018) is an Australian feature-length documentary film directed by Richard Todd.

It reveals how Australia lags behind similar countries in organ and tissue donor registration numbers, and features Australian organ and tissue donors and recipients from Victoria, Western Australia and Queensland.

According to director Richard Todd, he "first heard about the organ and tissue shortage in Australia on a TV breakfast show in 2015 featuring a story with Allan Turner".

[2] Time critical shoots occurred in late 2016 and filming was completed in December 2017.
