In November of 2020, high school basketball star Dylan Kalambay’s world turned upside down. He experienced heart failure at the young age of 16. Over the next 6 months he had open heart surgery and not long after, thanks to the generosity of an organ donor and their family, Dylan received a life-saving heart transplant. In September of 2021, after a long and challenging recovery, Dylan stepped back onto the court. The film Heart & Sole follows his journey as Dylan continues to pursue his dreams on the court, while off of it he tries to comprehend his second chance at life and his new identity as a transplant recipient.

Directed by Michael Hamilton and Produced by Game Seven Media (@game_7_media), Heart and Sole: the Dylan Kalambay Story is presented by Canadian Blood Services on behalf of Canada’s organ and tissue donation community.
