A pet project started by a filmmaker to satisfy their massive ego. One can usually tell because they'll take two or more of the roles of producing, directing, writing, and/or acting. If they're playing the protagonist, expect a "Jesus by a different name" vibe (compare Mary Sue). Most vanity films revolve around a blunt political message. While total nobodies are capable of and expected to create vanity films, the term is generally reserved for established celebrities throwing caution to the winds.
Some infamous vanity films include Battlefield Earth by John Travolta, The Postman by Kevin Costner, The Passion of the Christ by Mel Gibson, and The Room by Tommy Wiseau.

Get the filmbro mug.9/10 times, a student film involves:
- Zombies
- The homeless
- Suicide or Death in a dramatic light
- A short story they didn't write
- Alarm clocks
- The stalest of actors
- Needless exploitation of available resources (slow motion, racking focus for no reason, fancy credit titles)
- Poser pablum
- Blunt and painful symbolism
- An epic tale constrained to 5 minutes
- Copyrighted music used without permission, probably Radiohead or Sigur Ros
- Terrible sound or terrible shots (usually sound, rarely both)
9/10 times, a student piece sucks balls.
The 10th time, the time that it doesn't suck balls, it's probably a comedy.

Did you see that student film about the kid with a literal crutch, but his crutch was also his mother? And when he told her how she's his CRUTCH he threw his crutch on the ground and walked off? Deep man... DEEP.
