The Matthew Shepard Story plot

October 6, 1998. Matthew Shepard, a 21-year-old college student, is gay. He is lured into a deserted field by his peers Aaron and Russell. He is tied to a fence by the pair, beaten up and then left for dead. If he is found, it will be too late. On October 12, he died in hospital from his injuries. Meanwhile, homophobe Aaron brags publicly about what he sees as an act of heroism. Based on true events.
