4000 Days 2026

Overview

Chronicles the relentless fight of three families—Gary and Julie DeVercelly, Linda and Eric Oakes, and TJ and Kim Burch—who turned their personal tragedies into a nationwide movement for change. After losing their sons to fraternity hazing, the families found themselves up against a deeply entrenched system that thrived on secrecy, denial, and silence. Refusing to accept that their children died in vain, they joined forces and waged a years-long battle to expose the dangers of hazing, challenge university and fraternity accountability, and push for sweeping legislative reform.
