The idea of ​​adolescence as a horror story is nothing new, but on Charlie Polinger's incredibly fashionable debut feature, its pool, locker room and bunk dorm for boys' water polo camp is a pubertal petrie dish. There is a familiar adult narrative that draws from experience and benefits from its carefully selected young actors, but a strange, subtle, subtle faint fading, frustrated with the men of these boys who will chlorine cruelly at this age of formation, the cruel chlorination they swim among them.

Sensitive, 12-year-old Everett Blunck came to Tom Lerner Water Polo Camp twice in the summer of 2003 as an outsider. Not only did he join after the start of the second session, he was also a newcomer to the region. And, as we know from an early conversation with his copy of but ineffective coach (Joel Edgerton), his neutral tone is harmful when he describes how his mother uprooted her life with her new lover. Maybe the twisting and twisting of his father's figure helped Ben to be Ben's anxiety, but this might be what he looked like. When the endless games for kids you choose "No fucking dog, but let everyone think you did it, or fucking dog, no one knows", Ben chose the dog.

Alpha is obvious in any pack, even among these bears, Jack (a great Kayo Martin) is easily identified as the boss. Jake looks friendly when the surprising adult expressions show skepticism, and after Jake starts answering Jake picking up his little speech at least once Ben starts answering "Soppy", Jake wears surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions, wearing surprising adult expressions.

Jack's lazy but keen ridicule has an easier goal. Ellie (Kenny Rasmussen) was probably already a weird ball-even before he even showed up with a frustrating skin complaint. The rash of anger covering his arms and torso may be some kind of eczema or contact dermatitis, but the boys are still obsessed with lepers and cursed age, so Jack declares it to be a "plague." Eli was so excluded that all the kids would sneak into another cafeteria if he pulled up the chair.

The kind Ben is in the pain of panic uncertainty, which is frustrating from the outside, even if only because it will disappear in a year or a month or a minute, which is unhappy with Eli's plight, which may be more than what very satisfied Eli does for himself. However, since he had little to enough social capital to guarantee his acceptance of Jack's circle, Ben carefully got to know the wanderer and stayed away from the piercing eyes. If no one knows, you can do taboo illegal acts.

DP Steven Breckon interrupts the “plague” with an episode of woozy’s underwater photography, in which the boy’s body dagger enters the pool and then treads water, similar to many headless seahorses. Sometimes, despite the excellence of Johan Lenox, the 70s terror, Nightmare-choir score reached a bombing progressive gradual, while girls in synchronized swimming classes shared the pool and fired the boy’s rough erotic imagination and presented inverted, thus appearing to float above the water. These secondary symphonies attract the vision to an environment that is a cleverly reproduced from mediocre memory, remembering the details of an early childhood of Noughties: Capri-Suns, Pop Tuns, Pop Tuns, a brief stage in which children think that smoking the fruit of a kitchen cup will give them high content.

Perhaps the same is true of the subjective nature of the era when Polinger’s memory of peer groups is more influential than any peripheral authority figure, which illustrates why these children are often unrestricted by adult supervision. Jack would naturally use this freedom to continue his reign of terror, something he could sustain without actually lifting his fingers. Almost all the violence in "Plague" is self-caused and therefore easily rejected by this binary tyrant - the character is so vivid that it imagines a more provocative film told from the bully's perspective. But as the “plague” gradually rises to an impressive, body horror style ending, it needs to be more expected to be a significant moment towards the personal growth of the unfortunate Ben. Fallen on the edge of adult society, insidious ideas about your masculinity and compliance, you can dive or be pushed in, and only then can you know if you sink or swim.
