The miss-education of Cameron Post - Frequent (com)passionate scenes
Coming of age drama, set in the early 1990's.
The lead protagonist (Chloë Grace Moretz) is a gay youth, who is actually 21 years old but still looks like her 14 year old character. She gets caught intimately in the back of a car with her best-friend (girl) and is consequently sent to a gay conversion camp. The camp treats teenagers who are struggling with SSA (same-sex attraction).
The high pressure therapy involves reading from the bible, praying a lot and forcing the 'disciples' to be what they're not in an attempt to 'reprogram' them in as much as illustrate that homosexuality is a sin, heterosexual is normal and the conventional family unit is vital, they are forced to live in shame until they are eventually 'cured' by the process.
The film is intimate and compassionate with many erotic scenes that are tastefully done.
8/10
