Synopsis: Hero Camp! is a coming of age documentary that follows three queer teens on their paths towards self-discovery at a live action role-play (LARP) summer camp. Set against the backdrop of suburban Massachusetts, the film captures how this extraordinary camp community transforms our world into the fantasy realm of Sidleterra, where they battle villains from the writings of Homer and Lewis Carroll. As each of them invent and role play as their camp characters, they unearth revelations about their own identities, which they gradually carry over to the real world.
