Schoenbrun’s Camp Miasma Turns Personal into Provocative Horror at Cannes
At Cannes, Jane Schoenbrun’s Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma uses a fictional 1980s slasher as a surreal conduit to explore self, sexuality, and identity, blending arthouse abstraction with sharp humor. Led by Hannah Einbinder and Gillian Anderson, the film is strange and sometimes alienating but emotionally resonant, ultimately offering a generous, self-revealing meditation on body, desire, and writing one’s own story.
