'041*' is an Indian feature film documentary in Malayalam language by director Senna Hegde examining young volleyball players and their lives in rural Kanhangad, India.

The film had its world premiere at the 11th Cinema on the Bayou Film Festival at Lafayette, USA.

Plot



A group of local youth in a small town in India are closely knit by a game of volleyball every evening. Rajesh and Vipin lead the two teams with a great deal of passion until a seemingly endless losing streak sets Rajesh and his team on a trail of disbelief and dejection. The docudrama proceeds to draw a subtle parallel between the losing streak and the lives of these youth. Over the course of six days, this film brings into sharp focus their life stories, their aspirations and expectations, their faith and fears and their view on the rest of the world with the rural way of life in India providing a vivid backdrop.
