Director's word
"Working with Andor on the original score for 'Surviving Sex Trafficking' was an enriching experience. His music profoundly captured the complexity of the subject, conveying the intensity, sadness, and pain of the survivors' stories while also weaving in a sense of healing and hope. The score was not just background music; it became a powerful narrative force, enhancing the emotional depth of the documentary. Andor's compositions allowed the audience to connect more deeply with the courageous journeys of the survivors, making the film a more immersive and impactful experience. His artistry truly elevated the storytelling, and I am grateful for the profound impact his music had on our film."
