A J1 Visa is an electrifying ticket to another world. Seán was one of many young Irish students who go to America every year in search of fun, fame and f***ing. He returned to Ireland with a shocking story to tell.

 

‘5 Nights’ tells the harrowing yet uplifting true story of an Irish college student who heads off to live the American Dream on the back of a student J1 Visa. Working and playing hard until one day, on a South Boston building site, a lightning bolt shot through his body, catapulting him into the air. Knocked out from the ferocity of the strike, his body went into shock. He lay curled up in a ball, thousands of miles away from his family and home. ‘5 Nights’ goes beyond reality and delves into Seán’s sub-consciousness as he lies in the Intensive Care Unit of The Boston Medical Center for 5 emotionally charged days and nights.
