Nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for Best First Feature, Antonio Campos directs this fascinating, creepy film about a withdrawn prep school student (Ezra Miller) who consumes too many web videos. When he does do something constructive--signing up for an afterschool video club--he inadvertently captures footage of two popular girls overdosing in a stairwell. When called upon to make the memorial video, he unravels. "Afterschool has been compared to Paranoid Park, but where Gus Van Sant's high school crime scene is lyrical, impressionistic, and tolerant, Campos's is cool, precise, and judgmental" (J. Hoberman, Village Voice).
