Totally synced up with @thethirdhan take on Sky Peals premiering at @SicVeneziaSNCCI . “Liminal” is definitely the space it sits in. I found it so moving. Congrats to @moinwjh and @EscapeFilms1 🌟 Enjoy this moment.

It’s exciting to finally share news of this film, for which I composed an original score. It will have its world premiere in the Venice Critics’ Week competition at the Venice Film Festival! Congratulations to all involved, and especially to writer/director, Moin Hussain.
