In truth there isn't much story here, or much insight either; the kind of alienated teenagers wandering through this film exist in movies far out of proportion to their number in real life.

Unsettles without illuminating, marred by narcotic pacing and a blank lead performance.
Afterschool, the almost frighteningly accomplished first feature made by Antonio Campos when he was 24, is high school as horror show.
This is a sophisticated stylistic exercise too rarefied for wide audiences, but earmarked for critical kudos.
Campos (who was 24 when he made this jolting pic) captures the numbing psychic scramble that just might cause the YouTube generation to go morally haywire. Or become filmmakers.
