Written and directed by Palme D’Or nominee Klaus Hüttmann, ‘The List’ is a universal and psychological thriller at the edge of our time.

Christopher Cowin is in his mid 30s, a family man who owns a small advertising agency. A court case he had recently lost has shown him the rich and powerful always win! That is why Christopher creates the website ‘The List’. On this site, users can label corrupt individuals in public life and award them points as to how much of a menace they are. The result is a list of politicians, CEOs and bankers. The website quickly becomes a worldwide success but suddenly, whoever is number one on ‘The List’ appears murdered and public opinion starts to turn against Christopher.

‘Family’ is an emotional, mournful and unsettling track that utilises floaty pads to give a hazy warm feel to the scene.

‘Warehouse’ was fundamentally a large build to a climactic point in the film. A slow rising motif helps journey towards this point.

‘Closing In’ is an industrial sounding, energetic track that pounds forward. I aimed to keep movement at all times across the various instrumentation. And yes, it intentionally sounds like a robot snoring.
