Sir Kenneth Branagh and the Sound of Belfast

DECEMBER 09, 2021

Today we are joined by director Sir Kenneth Branagh to discuss his deeply personal new film, Belfast. The film tells the semi-autobiographical story of "Buddy," a 9-year old boy living in the city during "The Troubles" of 1969. To help convey the overwhelming feeling of menace, seemingly just around every corner, the director pulled together an award-winning sound team that’s joined us today to discuss how they crafted such a rich soundtrack for such an intimate film.
