In October 1998, 21 year-old Matthew Shepard was found savagely beaten, tied to a fence and left to die in Laramie, Wyoming. This film is a dramatization of a town forced to confront itself in the reflective glare of the national spotlight, responding with love, anger, sympathy, support, and defiance.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
interesting and faptivating submitted by Jackie77 on August 20, 2015, 7:16pm This was very good. It was written as a documentary but used actors instead of real people. It gives numerous opinions on the reason why matthew shephard was murdered.
