Synopsis

In 1952, twelve-year-old David (Ben Tibber), who was raised in the Communist Belene Prison Camp in Bulgaria, witnesses the death of his friend and protector Johannes (Jim Caviezel) and escapes from the concentration camp in the night. He is advised to mistrust everybody, and together with a piece of bread, a compass, a piece of soap, a jackknife, and a sealed envelope to be delivered in Denmark, he travels though Greece and Italy heading north.

Along his journey, David discovers the beauty of the world and slowly he changes his behavior towards people. When he meets Sophie (Dame Joan Plowright), an old lady that lives in Switzerland and likes to paint as a hobby, she asks David to paint his face. Later she invites David to have lunch with her in her house, and David finally discloses his quest to her.

The subtle use of instruments and melodies in the soundtrack helps to convey the inner transformation of David, from a fearful and isolated boy to a brave and compassionate young man.

The composition of the soundtrack in I Am David feels disconnected from the film's setting and time period. The music does not evoke the atmosphere of post-World War II Europe, resulting in a jarring and mismatched auditory experience.

On the other hand, some may find the soundtrack of I Am David to be a bit predictable and generic at times. While it effectively conveys the emotions of the characters and the overall tone of the film, some may argue that it lacks originality and fails to leave a lasting impact. Overall, the music serves its purpose in supporting the narrative but may not stand out as a memorable aspect of the film.

4/10

The use of repetitive themes and motifs in the soundtrack of I Am David becomes monotonous and predictable, failing to enhance the storytelling or engage the audience on an emotional level. The music feels like an afterthought rather than a crucial element of the film's narrative.
