《难以置信》（英语：Hard to Believe）是一部2015年由美国 PBS公共电视台制作的纪录片，透过多名专家^[谁？]调查，披露中国共产党执政当局被指控从被关押中的法轮功学员身上摘取肝脏、肾脏、眼角膜、心脏等器官，当摘除器官时，这些人仍活著；并形成了一条完整的器官产业链，被害者还包括一些维族穆斯林、地下教会基督徒。英国《每日邮报》指，本片是通过长期持久的调查剖析了“为什么国际社会对于‘当代最灾难性的人权侵犯行为’选择视而不见”的第一部电影。^[1]^[2]《生物伦理学探讨期刊》称“本片对于从事器官捐献和移植、人权、医疗、伦理及法律业的人们至关重要；忽视弱势群体的需求会侵蚀人性和破坏公众的信任。”^[3]曾获选十大影响力科学家的美国生物伦理学者亚瑟·卡普兰称“该片是对我们这个时代最严重的人权迫害之一的一个十分重要、及时、令人深感不安的讲述。”^[4]^[5]此片说明了，在数量庞大的证据面前，国际社会为何未能采取行动。^[6]^[7]

制作

美国《图书馆视频评论期刊》影评称“强力推荐这一教育性人权纪录片。”^[8]两度艾美奖得主、导演肯•斯通（Ken Stone）表示：“我们所做的就是探索为甚么这些报导和纪录片得到的关注如此之少。许多人提供了如此强有力的证据，但是他们总是被人忽视。”^[1]^[9]

纪录片讨论了调查记者伊森·葛特曼和诺贝尔和平奖被提名人大卫·麦塔斯律师和加拿大前国务秘书大卫·乔高进行的独立调查。葛特曼向媒体表示“在面对暴行时，人们总习惯不去正视。只有当它已经过去了之后，人们才会承认一件残暴的事情。从我们用了多长时间，才承认对犹太人大屠杀，你就会明白。这种事情发生了一次又一次。”^[1]

本片在习近平赴纽约出席联合国峰会期间，在美国PBS公共电视网播出、发行DVD。美国PBS播出此片逾40次。^[10]在2016年于香港召开世界器官移植大会前公映。^[11]
