The Un Certain Regard section of the Cannes Film Festival launched with the world premiere of “Camp Miasma,” a queer slasher film that blends uproarious humor with a confoundingly heady tone. The picture, described in its Variety headline as featuring orgasms, outrageous murders, and blood-soaked scenes, stars Gillian Anderson and Hannah Einbinder.
The movie marks the third feature from writer-director Schoenbrun, who was present at the Wednesday night screening. Following the debut, the audience responded with a six-minute standing ovation while Schoenbrun embraced their collaborators.
“Camp Miasma” is characterized by the trade publication as equal parts funny and intellectually challenging, signaling an audacious start for the festival’s Un Certain Regard strand.
