Synopsis/Details
Izzy, a 12-year old girl is adopted by, what seems like, the perfect family – kind, good-looking and very wealthy. But all is not what it seems and Izzy figures out that she was adopted for just one reason: to harvest her organs to transplant them to the family’s sickly son. Her "brother" needs to live long enough in order to procreate and carry on the family name. THANKS FOR YOUR DONATION is a limited-cast, limited-location thriller - a great way to manage logistics and budget. Viewers are hungry for indie horror and for stories about social justice - similar to "Get Out," this screenplay has both.
