A tense psychological thriller written and directed by the exceptional David Farr (who wrote The Night Manager and Hanna) and features excellent performances.  The Guardian just gave it four stars as have a number of other publications.

It’s always hard to describe a film, but image The Hand That Rocked The Cradle written by Pinter and directed by Polanski and you’re getting close.

The music features processed piano and string quartet (often playing fairly unbalancing sounds).  I worked hard on reflecting the internal states of the protagonists and am really pleased with how the music is intrinsically linked to the emotional state of the film and the mental state of the characters.
