The score with storytelling

There is little, if anything, that provides a more vivid and compelling window into other realities than a documentary film. A combination of unforgettable real-life characters, hard-hitting facts and striking visuals can have measurable impact and raise awareness of pressing topics from around the world. Arguably music is the glue that often holds this mix together. It’s also an easily grasped metaphor for freedom that cuts across all language barriers.
