Camp Shame
Official Selections
| United States | 38 MINUTESDocumentary, Journalism
Camp Shane–the world's first kids’ weight loss camp–promises extraordinary results. But behind a smiley facade is a dark underworld of exploitation. At the heart of the camp is a story of family founders: the Ettenbergs. Their multi-generational feud includes theft, lawsuits, disinheritance and negligence. Camp Shame will unpack decades-old stories of abuse and reexamine the fatphobia that allowed this camp to thrive in an attempt to answer the question: what is the price of shame?
