The Miseducation of Cameron Post
Emily M. Danforth’s coming-of-age novel is gearing up to receive the movie treatment it deserves. Circa 1993, after teenage girl Cameron Post (Chloë Grace Moretz) is caught during a sexual encounter with a girl on prom night, she is forced into gay conversion therapy by her conservative aunt. Ultimately, Cameron comes to terms with being a lesbian, defies the camp’s methods to reeducate her, and finds a close-knit gay community along the way. The film’s recent Sundance premiere was met with incredible reception, and even walked away with the festival’s U.S. Dramatic Grand Jury Prize. A committed ally, Chloë Grace Moretz dedicated the award to the LGBTQ survivors of sexual conversion therapy, hoping that her film will bring more awareness to the issue.
