Movies about Overnight Summer Campare filled with old cabins, s’mores, bugs, archery, summer love, and much more. Most of the summer camp movies never have a real lifclearly have a less than wholesome appeal. That is until the movie Summercamp! arrived on the scene. This move is a documentary that lets parents take an inside look at the coed summer camp Swift Nature Camp located in the northwoods.

“Summercamp!” Shows the outside world that the camp experience may provide Sunsets over the lake but its living in your cabin with a bunch of others that provides the interpersonal interactions. The Flaming Lips, provides a fun active soundtrack. The timeless aspects of camp with its no laptops or Gameboys policy makes SummerCamp a place of dedicated time. The modern world intrudes only when campers speak of their medications. Staff suggest that active kids need less pills and so camp is a great place to run, jump and be tiered every night.

This sweet and shapeless movie focuses on a handful of youngsters struggling with their feelings. There’s little Holly, who resembles a sad Alice in Wonderland and is peculiarly obsessed with chickadees; talkative Spencer, at peace only when reading Tom Clancy; and aggressive Cameron, a delinquent-in-training who cries daily for his mother.

This is what folks are saying about the SummerCamp movie:

How free and how troubling childhood can be, for one thing, and how we all improvise our way toward growing up. Bradley Beesley and Sarah Price’s movie only seems minor on the surface. Like all good nonfiction works, it observes the specific until the specific turns universal, and the universal until you find yourself moved beyond words.

It’s the start of the last three-week session at Swift Nature Camp in Minong, Wis., and the counselors are nearing burnout. (“I love my kids,” says one. “I hate my co-counselor.”) The filmmakers introduce us to a handful of campers packing their trunks, all deceptively certain of themselves and united in their love of nature. Bailey, 11, dryly remarks that “most animals are a lot cooler than humans, who are like these pink blobs with no defenses.”

Bug bites, lime Jell-O, homesickness — “Summercamp!” gets it all, and so what? What can a low-budget, shakily filmed documentary about three weeks at a Wisconsin sleepaway camp tell you that your own gimp-strewn memories can’t?
