I have presented Felix with an enormous challenge by asking him to compose music for a film of which absolutely nothing is known about the story, genre, style. The 48 Hour Film Project, a film competition where participating teams make a film in 48 hours. Writing, filming, editing, music, credits, a poster. Everything! The competition gave us the thriller/suspense genre. He translated all the inspirations I had and perhaps strange descriptions excellently into version upon version upon version. A whopper! Calm and decisive, pleasant to work with.

The story
