CAMP

description

Haunted by a traumatic past, Emily finds solace as a camp counselor while navigating grief, witchcraft and the power of female friendship.

Emily is the root cause of two devastating tragedies very early in her life. She feels the weight of these accidents like a curse has been placed upon her. Her dad suggests she go to a Camp for troubled youth to ease her guilt; she can be a counsellor there. When Emily arrives, she is taken in by the other counselors, they accept her as she is and wrap her in a veil of peace & forgiveness. Emily stands at the forefront of a new kind of life, but there’s a voice out there in the woods she can’t quite seem to ignore. The voice is whispering, she’s telling Emily to go home. From CUFF alum Avalon Fast (HONEYCOMB, 2022) and featuring Calgary cast (Mike Tan) and crew (producers Taylor Nodrick and Michael Peterson), CAMP is a story of impossible redemption, modern witchcraft, and duels that repeat themselves like cursed cycles.
