Thirteen Lives follows the 2018 rescue mission of 12 Thai boys and their
football coach, trapped in a flooded cave system, in Chiang Rai, Thailand.
The rescue eff ort spanned 17 days and brought together thousands of
people from all walks of life, cultures and countries.
The fi lm is directed by Ron Howard and stars Viggo Mortensen as Rick
Stanton, Colin Farrell as John Volanthen, and Joel Edgerton as Harry
Harris.
Supervising sound editors and Academy Award nominees, Oliver Tarney
and Rachael Tate, sat down with me to discuss how they helped bring this
incredible soundtrack to life.
