Gods 2014

Gods is the story of the cardiac surgeon, Zbigniew Religa, who performed the first successful heart transplant in Poland in 1984. The young doctor intended to apply the latest world improvements in transplantology, but was blocked by the restrictions ruling the People's Republic of Poland. Religa had to oppose his former mentors and fossilised bureaucratic and political structures, and to fight with the public superstitions, according to which the heart is seen as a relic, and not a "glorious pump."
