Reviews

“Schwab’s direction places performance and screenplay centre stage, resulting in a fascinating trilogy of diverse yet connected stories of longing, conflicted loyalty and corrupt desire. From Peter Stickles’ unethical therapist, Dr Lesh, to Julian Goza’s haunted and caring Jason and Christian Gabriel’s conflicted Wyatt, the characters Schwab and his talented cast bring to life stay with you long after the credits roll. As a result, one comes away from Exteriors, hoping that this is only the start of a world-building project that will see us return in the future and further explore the repercussions and outcomes of each perfectly formed story. ."

“Schwab’s direction is taut throughout, and along with his editing work, he manages to give each story a different feel and look. What is interesting about Exteriors, and Schwab’s script in particular, is that the characters in the film are all ultimately self-destructive and alone. They don’t seem to understand each other or themselves. They know how to go through the motions of social interaction, but they are unable to form genuine connections with other people. This makes the film seem particularly relevant to our current, insincere times and Schwab a definite name to keep an eye on."
