Scott Jones’ life changed irreparably one night in October 2013, when he was stabbed in the back by an allegedly homophobic assailant. Confined to a wheelchair after being left paralyzed from the waist down, Scott has picked up the pieces of his life and glued them back together fairly well. ‘Love, Scott’ follows him over the course of three years after the traumatic event as he comes to terms with his disability, attempts to forge music with activism, and in the process, reach a place of forgiveness.
