The short film follows a man whose alcohol addiction leads to a fatal accident. A recurring motif reflects the cycle of guilt, loss of control and repetition, shifting between oppressive, vulnerable and almost hopeful moments. The hybrid score combines recorded church organ, female voice and piano, and was mixed in Dolby Atmos.

Mirco Schmadel is a composer and audio producer based in Frankfurt am Main. At SAE Institute, he developed a strong foundation in music production, sound design and audiovisual storytelling.
His focus is audio dramaturgy — how sound shapes tension, sharpens transitions and makes emotional development tangible.
Blending acoustic and electronic elements, his work moves from intimate minimalism to dense orchestral textures. Recurring motifs and evolving musical ideas give each story its own emotional thread.
A story-first approach to composition and sound, from the first idea to the final mix.
