Movie Description:
In October 1998, 21 year-old Matthew Shepard was found savagely beaten, tied to a fence and left to die in Laramie, Wyoming. "The Laramie Project," is aportrait of a town painfully forced to confront itself in the reflective glare of the nationalspotlight. How did this small town with a "live alet live" phillosophy become a town where young men could commit such a crime? The answer may lie in "The LaramieProject," a stunning, profoundlymoving picture of a community facing an incomprehensible event and its aftermath.
