There's a hole at the bottom of the lake. That's where the videos come from.

Kris, a young, talented director (Hannah Einbinder) is given the opportunity of a lifetime by a film studio—she’s to direct a remake of the cult horror series „Camp Miasma,” which enjoyed immense popularity in the ’80s and ’90s. To find inspiration, she goes to meet Billy (Gillian Anderson), who played the lead role in the original series. The visit with the eccentric actress quickly turns into something more than just an interview.

„Love, Death, and Growing Up at Camp Miasma” made its debut at the Cannes Film Festival, where it took critics and audiences by storm—and earned a prestigious nomination in the Un Certain Regard section. The latest film by Jane Shoenbrun (director of the acclaimed „In the Glow of the Screen”) currently has 100% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, and audiences are leaving screenings delighted.

Although the film *Shoenbrun* tells the story of the making of a fictional horror series, it is not a horror film in itself, but merely draws on the genre’s aesthetics. It is a visually stunning treat for film lovers that speaks, above all, of a boundless love for cinema. And about how that love changes our lives.

At the heart of this story are two actresses representing two different generations. The legendary Gillian Anderson plays an eccentric diva, while Hannah Einbinder, known for the series „Hacks,” plays a talented director who is unsure of her standing. Together, they form this year’s most electrifying on-screen duo.
