“Johannes Ringen’s music crowns the film with an exquisite touch.” (Dagbladet)
The Arctic Convoy (Johannes Ringen)
Original score from the 2023 war action feature film directed by Henrik Martin Dahlsbakken, starring Tobias Santelmann, Adam Lundgren and Anders Baasmo, produced by Fantefilm and released by Magnolia Pictures (USA) and Signature Entertainment (UK).
THE STORY: Summer 1941: Hitler seems unstoppable, invading the Soviet Union. Convoys of cargo ships with war materials began the perilous journey to Murmansk. Ordinary sailors facing German superiority in the icy Arctic sea with lives at stake.
THE SCORE: “The phrase fog of war from the script served as a starting point for creating the tone of The Arctic Convoy‘s score. The music aims to capture the raw and uncertain atmosphere of military conflict, reflecting the confusion and limited information that those affected by war often experience. To immerse the audience in the characters’ psychological state, director Henrik M. Dahlsbakken and I decided to approach the score from a textural and atmospheric perspective. Rather than providing a sense of security through recognizable themes, we opted for a more abstract and unsettling musical landscape that alludes to the fog of war itself.” – Johannes Ringen
