Edison, NJ – On Saturday, March 15, 2025, at 7:00 PM, the thought-provoking documentary ABUNDANT will screen at AMC Menlo Park in Edison, New Jersey. This powerful film takes audiences deep into the world of extreme altruism—specifically, non-directed kidney donation—where individuals make the life-changing decision to give a kidney to a complete stranger.
Through deeply personal stories and expert insights, ABUNDANT examines the cultural and ethical questions surrounding generosity and how society can foster a spirit of giving. The documentary features compelling interviews with experts such as Nobel Prize Laureate Alvin Roth, PhD, and Stephen Dubner, host of Freakonomics Radio, alongside the inspiring experiences of living kidney donors.
Adding to the emotional depth of the film, live performances by kidney donor storytellers bring firsthand accounts to life, culminating in an unexpected and powerful turn of events that leave audiences reflecting on the true meaning of selflessness.
A Cause That Hits Close to Home
The event is sponsored in part by Espresso Mio, a New Jersey-based coffee service company. Its second-generation owner, Vinnie Lisi, was so moved by ABUNDANT’s message that he stepped forward to share his own experience as a kidney donor. His personal connection underscores the film’s powerful message: generosity has the power to change lives.
