CUTAWAYS, the NEW Queer Film on Amazon Prime- Filmmaker Mark Schwab and Star Silas Kade

The new LGBTQ feature Cutaways tells the story of a once-celebrated indie filmmaker whose career implodes after a social media backlash turns him into an industry pariah. As bills pile up and opportunities disappear, he reluctantly accepts a job directing an adult film—what begins as a survival tactic soon becomes an existential reckoning.  Today I talk to Mark Schwab, the acclaimed independent, and Silas Kade, CUTAWAY's star.  A Bay Area–based filmmaker, Schwab’s recent work includes Shadows in Mind, Brotherly Lies (2021) and its sequel Exteriors, which won Best LGBTQ Feature at the 2024 Poppy Jasper Film Festival.
