Anybody who ever went to Summer Camp will surely be able to relate to this documentary. It deals with a few weeks at a Summer Camp for young folk, aged 6 to 15. We are introduced to the main element of the more troubled campers, an introvert, a bully,a passive-aggressive,and others. It seems to be (Summer Camp,that is)an antidote to pill popping (for the youngsters that are saddled with ADD/ADHD). The film is alternatively funny & heart breaking. The soundtrack is studded with the music of alternative rock Gods, The Flaming Lips,and some other band called Noiseola,whom I'm not familiar with, but still added a rather tasty added instrumental score. Pity that most cinemas won't be screening this much needed alternative to the drab Summer film fare (do we really need more films featuring super heroes,pyrotechnics gone berserk,horny teens,and just general stupidity than there is already?). About the only thing that would make this documentary complete would be that the snack bar serves S'mores for this engagement.
