The Miseducation of Cameron Post

Set in 1993, the film follows Cameron, a teenage girl caught with her girlfriend on prom night, who is sent to a remote conversion-therapy centre. There she meets other young people held to the same programme, and together they resist, in small ways, a treatment premised on the idea that their desire is a sickness.

It sits in a therapist's library as a study of repression, shame and desire under a regime that pathologises the self, and as a cautionary account of what happens when treatment is put to the service of eradicating who a person is. It won the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance in 2018 and is based on the novel The Miseducation of Cameron Post by Emily M. Danforth.
