About

“As a director, RT Herwig paints the human condition with rare authenticity, drawing from a psychological palette of rich visual concepts, narrative mood, actors’ performances and a spark of delicious mystery.”

RT is currently working with Paradigm developing his next feature film entitled SURFING IN AFGHANISTAN with Jackson Rathbone (TWILIGHT SAGA) attached as American lead.

RT’s debut feature film SAINT CHRISTOPHER (aka THE GOOD THIEF) was a great learning lesson. After screening the film all around North America at various film festivals and private screenings, it was acquired for worldwide licensing and distribution by Rogue Arts and Vanguard Cinema and can now be found streaming and on DVD at NetFlix, Amazon, Blockbuster, etc.

“…a haunting and very atmospheric piece of cinema, wherein darkness rules not only the streets, but also the hearts of the people living within the shadows. This terrifically, well-crafted film, features excellent performances by its cast, a very effective score and beautiful cinematography. A stunning testament to independent filmmaking.” – Philadelphia Film Festival

“The direction is far more interesting than most mainstream films.” – San Jose F

“It was one of the most talked about films at this year’s festival. I was so glad to see something so completely original, odd, arty, technically mastered and impactful. I was mesmerized by the camera work and mood and applaud R.T.’s courageous choices while maintaining accessibility.” – Sedona International Film Festival

“…a thought-provoking, visually rich film which artfully deals with questions of guilt and forgiveness. It was a great showcase for an actor’s festival such as ours.” – Method Fest Film Festival
