After The Wedding
Jacob Petersen has dedicated his life to helping street children in India. When the orphanage he heads is threatened by closure, he receives an unusual offer. A Danish businessman, Jorgen, offers him a donation of $4 million dollars. There are, however, certain conditions…Not only must Jacob return to Denmark, he must also take part in the wedding of Jorgen's daughter. The wedding proves to be a critical juncture between past and future and catapults Jacob into the most intense dilemma of his life.
Johan Söderqvist first made a strong impression on the international film music scene with his original score for Susanne Bier's acclaimed drama, Brothers (2004). The music for Brothers received two awards in Cannes and a nomination for Best European Composer 2005 at the European Film Awards. Söderqvist has been one of the most prolific composers of film music in Sweden since his debut in 1991 with the Swedish Grammy Award-winning music for Agnes Cecilia and Freud's Leaving Home . The latter was also his first collaboration with Susanne Bier. With the addition of After the Wedding , they have now worked on six films together. His talent for melody and interest in exploring musical colors has also been evident in scores for films including Walk the Talk , Exit , Misa Mi , Beneath the Surface and The Glassblower's Children .
Söderqvist's music for After the Wedding captures the emotion and unpredictability of the film. His music accompanies the picture perfectly while also leaving room for the film to breathe.
