The atmosphere is a blend of lighthearted camp joy with underlying tension, as Olivia navigates her insecurities against the backdrop of her parents’ obsession with their tech venture. The pacing gives you room to breathe, with moments of genuine connection among the campers, balanced with the creepiness of the forces trying to undermine her dad's groundbreaking work.
