Our take
A riveting examination of American summer camps for Christian children, this second feature from Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady is a compelling study of evangelical indoctrination. Oscar®-nominated for Best Documentary, Jesus Camp gains insider access to a charismatically-led—yet troubling—phenomenon.
