"In very exciting news, I scored the music for the latest Jim Jarmusch film, "Father Mother Sister Brother," along with Jim and some of the Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop crew (With whom i did the Nico, Desertshore project). The film just won the Golden Lion in Venice (Congrats to Jim, the cast and all his crew for this much deserved achievement) and premieres in the States on the 3rd October 2025, in NYC. Check the film once it's out in local cinemas and on Mubi." – Anika
