The upcoming Desiree Akhavan-directed film is a lesson in the importance of storytelling.

The year is 1993 and&mdash;in a flurry of wooden cabins, cuss-words, dirty denim and hand-rolled joints&mdash;Cameron, Jane and Adam are in the midst of a fight against the authorities of a camp that they&#39;ve been unwittingly sent to. But&nbsp;The Miseducation of Cameron Post is no ordinary story of teenage rebellion.

Based on Emily M. Danforth&#39;s novel of the same name, Chlo&euml; Grace Moretz, Sasha Lane, and Forrest Lane play three campers who have been sent to a conservative Christian camp to undergo gay conversion therapy. What begins as a path to recovery slowly turns into a path of self-discovery for Cameron, Jane, and Adam&mdash;three young people who, with every conversion exercise, learn to love themselves, love each other, and to eventually accept that they love who they love.

In <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/chloe-grace-moretz-is-all-grown-up" target="_blank">an exclusive interview</a> with L&#39;Officiel USA, our cover girl leaves no doubt that there is careful decision-making and reflection behind every film she chooses to be involved in.

&ldquo;I have always been very committed [to the LGBTQA+ cause] because two of my brothers are gay,&quot; Moretz said in our cover interview. &quot;I felt the need to stand up to this intolerance and to speak on their behalf. I fight, in every way possible, to highlight the horrible realities that LGBTQA+ youth have to face.&rdquo;

The Desiree Akhavan-directed film, for example, tackles a destructive practice often ignored by popular culture, but one that the LGBTQA+ struggles with to this day.

The Miseducation of Cameron Post hits theaters August 3, 2018. Watch the trailer below.
