Tôn Thất An is composing the score for the film adaptation of Banana Yoshimoto‘s novella ムンライド・シャドウ Moonlight Shadow, directed by Edmund Yeo, and starring Nana Komatsu.
Moonlight Shadow, which was inspired by Mike Oldfield’s song when Yoshimoto wrote it, tells the story of Satsuki, a young girl who’s trying to come to terms with the death of her boyfriend Hitoshi, her friendship with Hitoshi’s younger brother Hiiragi, who lost his girlfriend in the same accident.
The film is still in production, and the Japan theatrical release is set for this autumn.
The score will also include a brand new song, うそデモ (je te crois)…

Stay tuned for more information about the cast and the film!
