Short film.
Крона “Krona” (The Crown)
Original score
Alyona (23), tired of her routine, finds herself in an Udmurt village for the first time. Here, she finds it easier to encounter with the Udmurt spirits of nature than to deal with real life.
Alyona’s search leads her into the thicket of the forest; she is determined to find answers in Udmurtia’s wild nature and better understand herself.
The Crown is an Udmurt short film, Written and Directed by Vera Veredyuk and produced by Yekaterina Nikolayeva.
As composer, I collaborated closely with Udmurt folk group Azvyesyam - three incredible female musicians to produce a hybrid folk and cinematic score.
Before the start of the filming process, I was commissioned to host a masterclass and create a piece of music inspired by only the script. The full score will be released in time, but you can listen to the score’s origins below!
