Été 1963, Wyoming. Deux jeunes cow-boys, Jack et Ennis, sont engagés pour garder ensemble un troupeau de moutons à Brokeback Mountain. Isolés au milieu d'une nature sauvage, leur complicité se transforme lentement en une attirance aussi irrésistible qu'inattendue. À la fin de la saison de transhumance, les deux hommes doivent se séparer. Ennis se marie avec sa fiancée, Alma, tandis que Jack épouse Lureen. Quand ils se revoient quatre ans plus tard, un seul regard suffit pour raviver l'amour né à Brokeback Mountain.

Based on a true story, former parole officer Marilyn Gambrell and a colleague set up a pioneer trial-based program in one of America's toughest high schools to help the children of incarcerated parents regain control of their own lives and not expect the same thing to happen as it did to their parents. To the surprise of everyone, the program works, but the administration warns the duo that it will not last unless every senior student is able to pass his or her final exams and graduate with the class. As the end of the school year approaches, Gertz faces a crisis to save everything she believes in or lose it all
