- Synopsis:
As the adoring parents cradled the fatally wounded body of their little six-year-old son Nicholas, they took a decision of such extraordinary love, courage and compassion that it would move the world. This is the extraordinary true story of a close and loveing family on a sightseeing holiday in Italy in September 1994, whose lives were shattered one desolate night with the indiscriminate shooting of their little six-year-old Nicholas. As Nicholas lies dying in hospital, his devastated parents take the most painful decision imaginable to donate Nichola's organs so that other children may receive the gift of life. What begins as an intensely privata and unbelievably courageous act of love and human compassion, was soon to send emotional ripples right around the world that would come to be known as "The Nicholas Effect". - Actors:
