Summercamp
Summercamp
Summercamp! follows the day-to-day drama of 90 kids(between 6 & 15) let loose in the woods at Swift Nature Camp in northern Wisconsin. Camp is a place where kids can be kids, where their home and school lives momentarily fade into the background as they go through the highs and lows of adolescent rituals: sing-alongs, talent shows, homesickness, counselor mutiny--and first love. Amidst group activities, showy arguments, and secret conversations, filmmakers Bradley Beesley and Sarah Price submerge themselves into this curious camp subculture, capturing a diverse array of adolescents from all economic and social backgrounds. Through the non-calloused eyes of kids, Summercamp! captures the raw emotional experiences that will endure with them for the rest of their lives. Summercamp! features a soundtrack by The Flaming Lips.
“Unlike the intense cadets for Christ and creationism in the recent documentary Jesus Camp, the kids in the sweet Summercamp! have fun!” (Bill Stamets, Chicago Sun-Times)
“For better or worse, this relaxed docu successfully captures the experience of summer camp.” (Ronnie Scheib, Variety)
