The film, which is heavily influenced by Gus van Sant and Michael Haneke, is also known as the production that introduced Ezra Miller to the world.
Filmed at the Pomfret School in Pomfret, Connecticut, Afterschool premiered in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival.
Although Campos does not hide that he was influenced by Sant and Haneke while making this film, the style of the film does not go beyond 'young people are fond of sex and forbidden things, this is the source of everything' with a perspective that has nothing to do with the language of the cinema of these two directors...
Although Miller paints a terrific composition for the character he plays, the perspective of the director makes even this unimportant.
