Original score from the 2024 sci-fi drama feature film directed by Eric Esau, starring Dominic Bogart, Piercey Dalton and Jonathan Stoddard, produced by Mew Films.

THE STORY: When a mysterious planet appears in the sky, a young father must choose between the life he loves and an ancient call to save the world.

THE SCORE: “The soundtrack for Saturn reflects the film’s deep themes of survival, community, sacrifice, and belonging.  The music creates a sonic landscape that mirrors the characters’ emotional and physical journeys. Each piece invites the listener into a space where time slows, amplifying the sense of isolation, yet hinting at a collective strength. The score explores the tension between individual struggle and the pull of something greater than oneself, evoking the weight of decisions and the hope of unity. The use of strings, layered harmonies, and haunting melodies captures both the beauty and burden of sacrifice, ultimately conveying a message of connection and resilience.” – Emer Kinsella
