《希望之夏：身心障礙革命》

Memories of summer camp often involve a sense of nostalgia about the endless youth and utopia of a time and space away from mundane and disappointing reality. Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution is a documentary about Camp Jened for disabled youth in the Catskills of New York. It describes a place that was much more than a temporary summer getaway, since it was part of the bourgeoning disability rights movement in the 1970s. The directors Jim Lebrecht, a former camper, and Nicole Newnham used a collage of black-and-white video footage from the 1970s and present-day interviews with former campers to tell a story about not only the extraordinary time spent at Camp Jened and the radical actions that followed from it, but also the rare sense of freedom and solidarity that was made possible through camp life.
