An empathetic, creative energy-filled summer camp for queer teens who can finally be themselves.

In the Canadian wilderness, surrounded by mountains and forests, a passionate group runs a summer camp for non-heteronormative children. Queer teens come here to escape everyday struggles, unleash their creativity, and find a space where they can be accepted. With the support of dedicated educators who help them build confidence, the campers receive a powerful surge of positive energy, build new bonds, and uncover hidden talents. The documentary filmmakers achieve something remarkable: despite the serious issues these teens face daily—depression, bullying, and intolerance—"Queer Camp” is a film brimming with laughter, empathy, and self-expression.
