Director Reed Cowan, who is a former Mormon missionary, "planned on making a film about gay teen homelessness and suicide in Utah, but switched his focus to Mormon ideology because of how it contributes to the homophobia that causes these problems". The film focuses on the wealth and power of the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and how the Church uses the National Organization for Marriage to advocate for denial of rights to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Americans. It states that LDS Church leader Thomas S. Monson asked to ensure the passage of the controversial California Proposition 8. It also states that many homeless people in Utah are LGBT teens who were abandoned by their Mormon parents.

According to the film, prisoners in the United States are incarcerated in men's or women's prisons depending on their biological sex (or, more specifically, whether they have male or female genitals), and not their gender identity. As a result, pre-operative trans women are incarcerated in men's prisons, and trans men in women's prisons.

À Reims, en septembre 2002, François Chenu, 29 ans, est battu à mort dans un parc. Les trois Boneheads, reconnus coupables devant la cour d'assises, ont agi par homophobie après avoir voulu, selon leur expression, « casser de l'arabe ». La famille de François se livre, dans un douloureux processus de deuil, en rejetant résolument la haine. Ce n'est pas un film sur l'homophobie d'abord, c'est aussi un film sur le deuil et le pardon, l'impossibilité de pardonner.

The film, titled after a poem by Wheeler, details the abuse he received at the hands of his classmates because of his homosexuality. It also presents interviews and a cross-nation road-trip with members of Young Gay America, an online teen organization for gays, and compares the teasing and physical abuse Jim suffered to the increasingly open attitudes towards homosexuality six years later when the film was first shown.
