- Summary
- What happens when intolerance and hatred lead to tragedy? A Service for Jeremy presents one scenario. Fifteen-year-old Jeremy is abducted and beaten to death by fellow high school students because he is gay. Such tragedies are routinely played out in various forms across the country as victims are targeted because they are Black, Hispanic, Asian, Jewish, poor, gay, or just different. This video closely follows a handful of students through the days immediately following the murder of Jeremy. From the confessions of the killers to the media coverage, visitation, and final service for the dead teenager, students question the forces that led to Jeremy's murder and grapple with the task of organizing a memorial service for a student few people really knew. Interspersed with comments and opinions from a variety of professionals, this fast-paced drama explores the doubts, prejudices, compassion, inhumanity, and overall decency of a group of teens at what could easily be any high school in the country. What would you do if this happened at your school? Do you really think no one would care?
