Story
Boot Camp follows Sophie, a troubled teenager with a drug addiction, who is sent by her passive mother and brutally domineering stepfather to 'Camp Serenity,' an isolated boot camp in Fiji run by Dr. Arthur Hail. The institution is meant to be a rehabilitation program but turns out to be a prison-like facility where the teens are abused and brainwashed. Sophie's boyfriend, Ben, refusing to let her endure this alone, fakes a drug problem to get himself enrolled in the camp. Once inside, they witness and experience harsh physical and psychological conditions enforced by Dr. Hail and his militaristic chief of security, Logan. Both Sophie and Ben aim to escape their ordeal.
