Prayer

This is the end credits track of the short film “Prayer”, for which I composed the score. In a techno club in Lisbon, immigrant worker Abdul is on a video-call with his wife, Aliyah, who is going into labor and begs him to be present, at least over the phone. At the same time, his colleague Maria desperately needs his help. Caught between the demands of work and the birth of his son, Abdul grapples with the fear of losing his job and the challenge of becoming a father from afar. On top of all that, he fights with his strict father-in-law for his right to perform the sacred tradition of reciting the Adhan for his newborn son. “Prayer” premiered at the Hofer Filmtage 2025.
