The 5th Quarter (2010)

In the frosty grip of February 2006, young Luke Abbate's life takes a tragic turn. After a high-school team practice, he accepts a ride home from a fellow student, a decision that leads to an unthinkable catastrophe. The reckless teenage driver, ignoring the frantic pleas of Luke and the other passengers, loses control of the car at a terrifying 90 miles-per-hour. The car spins off a narrow road, plummeting into an embankment seventy feet below, and seals Luke's fate. Suffering from irreversible brain damage, Luke succumbs in the hospital two days later, a mere four days shy of his sixteenth birthday. This fatal accident sets the stage for a powerful tale of resilience and redemption. Devastated yet driven by the heartbreaking loss of his young brother, Jon Abbate decides to immortalize Luke's memory in an extraordinary way. Donning Luke's number 5 jersey, he steps onto the field with a new purpose and a deep resolve. His determination fuels the Wake Forest Demon Deacons, leading them through the most triumphant season in their school's history. The 5th Quarter is a profound narrative of tragedy, brotherly love, and an indomitable spirit that refuses to be quelled by adversity.
