Press Release from Quartet:
Quartet Records presents the soundtrack album composed by Víctor Reyes (LOVE GETS A ROOM, ESCAPE, DOWN A DARK HALL, the Emmy-winning THE NIGHT MANAGER) for the war drama film LA TREGUA, directed by Miguel Ángel Vivas and starring Miguel Herrán, Arón Piper, Javier Pereira and Fernando Valdivielso.
Set during World War II, the story takes place in the frozen steppes of Kazakhstan, home to Spassk99, a Soviet gulag where the USSR crammed together the “enemies of the people.” Among them were two groups of Spaniards: Republican soldiers trained by the USSR who were condemned for wanting to leave Russia when the war in Spain ended, and volunteers from the Blue Division, captured after fighting alongside the Nazis in Leningrad. These enemies must put aside their ideologies and unite.
Victor Reyes composed an intense, atmospheric, exciting vibrant, and dark score, written for orchestra and electronics, in a combination that is sometimes terrifying and sometimes hopeful, representing the inner voices of the characters.
