New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Hollywood Records and Searchlight
Pictures are excited to release ALL OF US STRANGERS Original Score with music by composer Emilie Levienaise-Farrouch. The film debuts in theaters on December 22 along with the 18-track score album on digital platforms. The soundtrack will also be released on vinyl in the new year on April 12, 2024.
Levienaise-Farrouch speaks on the music, "Being a part of the wonderful team who made Andrew Haigh's creative vision come to life was an immense privilege. All Of Us Strangers tells a story that is narratively so specific and yet touches on universal feelings at the core as what makes us human, the yearning for connection, acceptance and for love. It has been a joy to create a musical world that amplifies Andrew Scott's delicate performance as the lead character, Adam, and accompanies the audience on this oneiric journey. Piano, cello, violin and synthesizers, often manipulated with effects, were utilized in an intimate, dreamlike and warm score which I hope will bring audiences as much emotions on its own as it does within the context of the film".
In addition, Hollywood Records has released its newest episode of their music docuseries, The Big Score. In this episode, Emilie Levienaise-Farrouch takes us behind the scenes unraveling the intricate process of scoring All Of Us Strangers. Sharing her early influences, including artists like Björk and Radiohead, to revealing the challenges of crafting a unique yet subtly familiar sounding score, Emilie shares her journey. Delving into the thematic material of the film, she explores motifs of love and grief, drawing on her personal experiences to infuse warmth and a profound human connection into the score giving an insightful exploration of the delicate art of composition and emotion in film.
One night in his near-empty tower block in contemporary London, Adam (Andrew Scott) has a chance encounter with a mysterious neighbor Harry (Paul Mescal), which punctures the rhythm of his everyday life. As a relationship develops between them, Adam is preoccupied with memories of the past and finds himself drawn back to the suburban town where he grew up, and the childhood home where his parents (Claire Foy and Jamie Bell), appear to be living, just as they were on the day they died, 30 years before.
