Dark Sky Films will release festival favorite CAMP, a new coming-of-age horror feature from writer-director Avalon Fast (Honeycomb, Drinking and Driving) on June 26th in select US theaters, with a New York Theatrical Premiere at the IFC Center with Fast in attendance for the opening weekend.
The film world premiered at Austin’s Fantastic Fest, where it took Best Feature in the Next Wave competition. Further festival selections include the Seattle International Film Festival, OutfestNEXT in Los Angeles, San Francisco’s Frameline, Chicago’s inaugural edition of Beyond Fest, TIFF Next Wave, and more.
CAMP follows Emily, a young woman haunted by a traumatic past, who finds solace as a camp counselor while navigating grief, witchcraft, and the power of female friendship. The film stars Zola Grimmer in her screen debut alongside Alice Wordsworth, Cherry Moore, Lea Rose Sebastianis (Castration Movie Part 1 & 2, In A Violent Nature), Ella Reece, Austyn Van de Kamp (This Too Shall Pass), Sophie Bawks-Smith (Honeycomb), Izza Jarvis, and Aiden Laudersmith.
Beautifully lensed by cinematographer Eily Sprungman, CAMP is a melancholic and surreal odyssey into female adolescence that Letterboxd called “a bit like Virgin Suicides-era Sofia Coppola if she had grown up in the woods of British Columbia instead of a penthouse in New York City." Drawn from Fast’s lived experience, it’s the second film in the writer-director’s signature style—self-labeled GIRL HORROR—which explores the eerie horrors of growing up, infused with haunted female influence.
The film is produced by Taylor Nodrick (Influencers), Jacob Glickman, Jackie De Niverville, Martin Cadieux-Rouillard, and Maya Cadieux-Rouillard. Executive Producers on the film are Paul Cadieux (The Triplets of Belleville), Milan Chakraborty (My Friend Dahmer), Peter Kuplowsky (In a Violent Nature, Psycho Goreman), Michael Peterson (Harpoon), and Sanjay M Sharma (Four Samosas).
