When the unfathomable occurs, survival depends upon living among people who care.
Ennis, Montana - Population 864. On an early summer night in 2003, a group of young friends in a small Montana town gathered for a night out. But their summer celebration soon turned into a nightmare.
Throughout the evening, a sullen stranger had verbally harassed them. They were grateful when the man finally left around closing time. Then George Davis returned carrying a gun. He opened fire, wounding six and killing one. News coverage at the time focused on the police chase that led to Davis' capture. But little light was ever shined on what really happened to the young people and the town. This is their story.
Love Wins is a tender portrait of community recovery. It recounts the heroic acts of civilians, EMTs, police, and small-town hospital staff. Then it highlights how the Ennis community wrapped its arms around the survivors and the grieving family for months and years to come. The people of this small mountain town are a living definition of the best of humanity, when confronted with the worst. Their actions remind us of the heroism, selflessness, and generosity we all can show to our fellow human beings. Their story confirms that when the unfathomable occurs, survival depends upon living among people who care.
