THE MISEDUCATION OF CAMERON POST, Directed by Desiree Akhavan

Cameron Post looks the part of a perfect high school girl. But after she's caught with another girl in the backseat of a car, Cameron is quickly shipped off to a conversion therapy centre that treats teens "struggling with same-sex attraction."


"... adapted from Emily Danforth’s acclaimed 2012 YA novel, “The Miseducation of Cameron Post” is the survival story of a young, orphaned, small-town Pennsylvanian, forcefully sent to a Christian gay conversion therapy camp, armed with nothing other than her non-negotiable sense of identity. The terrifically versatile Chloë Grace Moretz plays Cameron, bringing out both her character’s youthful curiosity and precocious maturity. ... Akhavan’s film of acceptance and optimism feels as urgent as ever." - rogerebert.com
