Stars: Leonardo Fuica, Caitlin Cameron, Hannah Forest Briand, Alex Gravenstein | Written by Leonardo Fuica | Directed by Demian Fuica, Leonardo Fuica
The events around us shape a lot of the entertainment we see on television and in movies. Camping Trip is a movie that shows this is exactly the case. Taking place while the stresses of Covid shapes the world, a camping trip should be a welcome escape.
When two couples decide to go on a camping trip, the thoughts of leaving Covid behind offers them some hope. When a shady handover though near where they are camping goes wrong, they find themselves implicated in a crime that could tear their friendships apart.
One thing that is very obvious about Camping Trip is that it is set under the shadow of Covid. We have characters that are obviously sceptical about such things as wearing masks, but also ones that are following the rules.

This is the cinematic equivalent of the stopped clock telling the right time twice a day: a film full of stylistic overkill suddenly runs into the material that justifies it. Near the end of this otherwise unconvincing lakeside thriller from Canada’s Fuica brothers, there’s suddenly a protracted murderous brawl shot in an ecstatic ultra slo-mo sequence. It dazzles not just on its own terms, but for briefly elevating the film into something innovative, rather than the redundant showboating that’s gone before.
Maybe the Fuicas had too much time on their hands. Camping Trip is the fruit of Covid-19 lockdown, and hinges on a tenuous pandemic tie-in. Pent-up party people Ace (Alex Gravenstein) and Coco (Hannah Forest Briand) hook up with besties Enzo (co-director Leonardo Fuica...
