Join us for a conversation with the creative team behind the hit CTV Original drama series Transplant. The first season of the critically acclaimed series, which is the 2021 Canadian Screen Award-winner for Best Drama Series, follows a Syrian doctor who tries to build a new life for himself and his sister. It was a ratings hit on CTV, becoming the most-watched Canadian series, and on NBC in the U.S. The discussion will feature creator and executive producer Joseph Kay, Sphere Media Vice President of Development and executive producer Tara Woodbury, series star Hamza Haq, series cultural consultant and actor Ahmad Meree, and General Manager, Original Programming, Bell Media, Carlyn Klebuc.
