The Afterlife

About This Movie

The Afterlife (2014) has this laid-back, quirky vibe that really sets it apart. The premise of Simon's unexpected journey after his death is pretty unique, and the metaphysical realm is depicted with some fun, low-key practical effects that give it a handmade charm. The pacing feels almost casual, like a conversation you’d have with a friend about the absurdities of life and death. Simon's interactions with Greg bring a nice balance of humor and introspection; it’s not heavy-handed but more of a gentle exploration of what comes next. The performances are refreshingly natural, with a certain ease in their delivery that lingers long after the credits roll. An interesting piece from CampusMovieFest 2014 that’s worth checking out for its unconventional take on the afterlife.
