Storyline

In the winter of 2003, a catastrophic fire erupted in a Rhode Island concert club, ultimately claiming 100 lives. For this state of just over a million residents, the devastation was profound, leaving unanswered questions and deep scars in its wake. But out of the ashes of the tragedy arose an equally profound story of hope. One year after the fire, a community theatre in the small city of Woonsocket gathered together to perform a play written by the fire's youngest victim close to the end of his life - a play that many felt could only be described as prophetic. "41" tells the story of Nicky O'Neill, the young actor, writer and musician who left the world at age 18 but who left behind a message. "41" weaves together the story of a life cut short, the saga of a community in mourning, and a family finding its way out of the darkness.

User Reviews

"41" is a "10"

"41" is an incredibly powerful and moving documentary! It actually places you deep inside the very essence of Nick O'Neill's life and sadly, his death.

This documentary will move and take you to places you never expect. It may make you question your own belief system as it enters areas of spirituality and knowledge that isn't easily explainable.

"41" teaches lessons it may have never intended to teach. I found the greatest lesson of this film to be that we should celebrate each other and embrace qualities about those we love before they pass.

"41" is excellent! One of the best films I have ever seen.
