Role
Composer - additional music + music department
I'm thrilled to work with this fiercely indepedent dream team composing additional music, supporting the lost work of a gentle giant master of music; Y Vân: The Lost Sounds of Saigon” is a documentary about Khoa’s journey to rediscover the lost music of her late legendary composer grandfather Y Vân.
Y Vân was a renowned Vietnamese musician, composer, and arranger. During his short but prominent 60 years of life, he wrote and worked on hundreds of songs, with many of them considered timeless Vietnamese classics. He was also known as a masterful mixer & arranger, completing many film scores, radio, and television projects.
This exquisitely shot and brilliantly animated doc-buster, operating from no actual archival footage and yet making one of the most beautiful documentary productions I've ever seen, sees its world premiere at DOCNYC, the world's largest documentary film festival, in November 2025 in NYC.
