"This was a beautifully made film and a very touching project to work on. I wanted to mirror that with the score. I decided on a traditional orchestral score as it would allow me to create the aggressive and tense sound of war, which you can hear in the first cue, as well as the intimate and soft sounds heard later in the film."
