Kavre province in Nepal has been dubbed «Kidney valley»: there’s hardly a household there in which a family member hasn’t sold his or her kidney on the black market.

Many victims have been told that the process would have no impact on their health and weee even told that their kidney would grow back. Meet people from all sides of the illegal organ market to find out how, and why it has reached today’s appalling levels.
