Summary |
"Takes an unflinching look at the human tissue trade in Australia, its commercialisation and the future of the supply chain. The story is told through the journey of fictional cadaver "Richard" (voiced by Brendan Cowell), a newly-dead donor who witnesses the wondrous life-saving possibilities of the new tissue-based medical products made from cadavers like his. But he also learns of the perils of privatisation, including a body-snatching scandal in New York which sparks infection fears as far away as Australia." -- website |
