ComingSoon is debuting an exclusive Happy Campers trailer, previewing the upcoming documentary centered around the final days of a trailer park colony.
Directed by Amy Nicholson, Happy Campers follows the story of a group of working-class people who live in a colony of trailer parks. Though the group may not be rich, the film focuses on their shared community and content and happy life despite the stereotypes that come with trailer park life.
Happy Campers will open theatrically in New York beginning on August 7, 2024, and Los Angeles on August 21, 2024, with a video-on-demand release date to follow. The movie was also an official selection of a variety of documentary-based film festivals, including DOCNYC, SF Docs, and more.

What is Happy Campers about?
“In a waterfront campground off the coast of Virginia, residents spend their summers living spitting distance apart in rust-bitten RVs. They chuckle about the modest rent they pay for a million-dollar location, but what makes them the luckiest people in the world is more than just stunning sunsets, it’s the community they’ve created,” says the synopsis.
“Beneath cliched trailer park stereotypes lies an unlikely utopia where all are welcome. Neighbors help each other out, and share everything from power tools to simple pleasures. Loneliness and isolation are inconceivable. When their affordable paradise is sold to developers, the residents brace for eviction and the loss of friendships that span generations. They hold tight to their final days in the sun. The well-heeled crowd that takes their place will never be as wealthy.”
Amy Nicholson is a filmmaker that has produced and directed several features, including Zipper: Coney Island’s Last Wild Ride, Pickle, Muskrat Lovely, Independent Lens, and more.
