Outside

»How to tell right from wrong life.«

»"Outside" draws attention to a stumbling human life in a nearby European country whose economic power differential produces shameful injustice.«

»Unexpectedly ambiguous documentary film ... The fact that Andrei Schwartz uses his hero's confrontation with the truth not so much to expose him as to expose himself is what makes "Outside" so special.«

»Far more than a classic documentary: beneath the surface of a history of resocialisation lies a reciprocal relationship between the filmmaker and his protagonist that leads to the boundaries of the genre.«

»Not just a film about a life with guilt. "Outside" is also a film about trust and disappointment, truth and lies. A film that you want to see a second time.«

»"Outside" is a wonderful example of the fact that things are not always as they appear. And that more documentaries belong in the cinema.«

»This grandiosely ambiguous long-term observation about the return of a murderer into a cold society is absolutely worth seeing. It shines not only by the intensive view, but above all by the tough turn at the end.«
