Exclusive: Composer Ólafur Arnalds, who won a Bafta for his work on Broadchurch and had compositions featured on Nomadland and The Hunger Games, has boarded documentary Ari’s Theme as executive producer ahead of its world premiere at Hot Docs.
Nathan Drillot and Jeff Lee Petry’s work follows the real-life figure of Ari Kinarthy, a 34 year old music composer with the rare genetic condition Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2, which causes his muscles to deteriorate and will shorten his life.
By sixteen, he had lost the ability to move his arms but through a music therapy program he was introduced to composing, finding his life’s purpose.
The documentary follows Kinarthy 18 years later as he embarks on the project to create the soundtrack of the most impactful memories of his young life in a bid to leave legacy.
“We can’t ever know how long we’ll be remembered or what impact we really made.

Sandrayati has always been earth’s gentle admirer. Her life and music are intertwined with nature’s authenticity, illuminated by each stage of society’s oldest rhythm. Welcoming us into her tranquil world, Sandrayati’s brand new single “Vast” (out now on Decca Records/Universal Music Canada), featuring Ólafur Arnalds, circles four stages of a woman’s menstrual cycle, which mirror “the new moon”, “the waxing moon”, “the full moon” and “the waning moon”.
Whilst the first single from her upcoming album, ‘Suara Dunia’, was inspired by indigenous wisdom in connection with the earth, ‘Vast’ appears more abstract. In the writing process, Sandrayati imagined that she was an element of nature singing to humankind. In the music video, the cycle is a symbol of the closest relationship humans have with the rhythm in nature. Nearly four billion people in the world have a menstrual cycle, yet it is a topic many shy away from.

If the modus operandi of the 2022 pop season has been to promote projects weeks in advance — see Kendrick Lamar’s Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers and Beyoncé’s just-announced Renaissance — then Drake’s surprise release stuck to the old, pre-pandemic rules of superstars announcing new product at a moment’s notice.
