Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Patton founded the actual Camp Diva program in 2004; she met co-director Rae while Rae was volunteering to film a promo video. This whole movie started as a favor.
The Daddy Daughter Dance phenomenon itself is examined as a distinctly American ritual—one that carceral capitalism has somehow found a way to monetize through 'program fees.'
