It’s hard to imagine another filmmaker more engaged with the current moment than Jane Schoenbrun. The filmmaker has engaged with questions of trans identity, Internet lore, and simulation theory with their initial features “We’re All Going to the World’s Fair” and “I Saw the TV Glow.”
Now, “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma” opens the Un Certain Regard section at this year’s Cannes Film Festival as if to cement Schoenbrun’s master plan: from breakout filmmaker to established auteur.
Schoenbrun has plotted a trajectory to breakout status by navigating a series of professional and personal changes. Schoenbrun guides Sphaera through the past decade of their experiences and how they perceive the world today.

First serious #Cannes Palme contender arrives with James Gray’s taut 80s thriller PAPER TIGER, with excellent turns by Adam Driver, Miles Teller, and ScarJo, all destined for awards tractions…bonus points for making the pollution of the Gowanus Canal into a gripping plot device!
Absolutely adore @jtfirstman’s moving debut CLUB KID. Was not expecting a queer KRAMER VS KRAMER but bring it on! A very accomplished debut at #Cannes with a long life ahead of it…congrats to all. 🎉

What makes movies relevant today? The Cannes Film Festival is often the best place to look for some answers. There are the films in the program, of course — dozens of new works from around the world from new and established auteurs — but there’s also the sheer scale of the industry. The entire ecosystem converges at the festival each year: dealmakers, curators, influencers, and plenty of curious types looking to integrate into the scene.
At SPHAERA, we celebrate the cross-section of personal expression and cultural engagement that makes creative communities possible. Festivals like Cannes epitomize this phenomenon.
