Film School Confidential: Film School Confidential chronicles five film students over the course of one school year: Sara, an intellectual, Sal, who makes an earnest first film, Mark, who shoots wild, psychedelic images, Greg, who works hard at cinematography, and Marta, Sara's quiet freshman roommate. It is Marta's simple video that proves to be the most compelling, triggering a series of events that effects all five students and forces them to re-evaluate their own belief in the power of motion pictures.
