Comments by the composer
It was my first short film, and we really did not have very clear ideas. I worked with a synthesizer to emulate piano and to recreate an ambiguous, cloudy, almost sinister atmosphere because we did not want to give away too much information on the behaviour of the character. The tone during the film, which by the way had no dialogue, remained that way, static until the end.
