About the project

Music composition for Tom Green’s hard-hitting new film. Visionary director Green (‘Monsters’) created a thrilling film about a very serious topic – tax evasion.

Walter’s music won several awards in 2019 including the prestigious Clio Award, British Arrow Award, Creative Circle Award and D&AD.

The music features acoustic and electronic instruments that were enhanced with analog and digital effects, as well as a large modular synth setup to create unique sound textures. ‚The Heist‘ was also screened in cinemas with an enhanced surround mix in Dolby Atmos produced by Factory.
