As part of the 13th edition of the FIMUCITÉ festival award winners will be announced prior to the start of the concert ‘My Favourite Fears’ / ‘Mis terrores favoritos’. The 13th edition of the festival has been made possible this year thanks to the support & sponsorship of the Cabildo de Tenerife, the Canary Islands Government, and Santa Cruz de Tenerife City Council.
Musimagen has announced the nominees of the II Spanish Audiovisual Music Awards for each of its three audiovisual music categories: series; electroacoustic music; and orchestral scores.

This awards ceremony in which professionals of the audiovisual music sector vote for award winners is the first of its kind in Spain.
Winning scores will be announced during the awards ceremony. During the evening’s events, the Orquesta Sinfónica de Tenerife under the baton of the festival’s director, the composer Diego Navarro, will perform a suite that unites the three film scores nominated for Best Orchestral Score.

Topics explored in the documentary category range from nature to art. In ‘American Mirror. Intimations of Immortality’, which explores the work of Tigran Tsitoghdzyan whilst also reflecting on patterns of beauty in an era of social media, a decisive role is played by the score of Mark Petrie (whose compositions have been heard in numerous trailers, including ‘Blade Runner 2049’ or ‘Avengers: Endgame’). ‘Pinazo. Notas y Pensamiento’ analyses the work of the great Valencian painter and is supported by the score of Josué Vergara (who has previously received 4 nominations in Fimucinema and won an award for Best Original Song in 2017 for ‘Sonríe’).
‘Finding Bobbi. A Search for Self’ brings our focus onto acting through an LGTBIQ+ production, via the figure of trans actress Bobbi-Jean Charlton. Music is by John McMillan, who worked as assistant to Brian Tyler on titles such as ‘Expendables 2: Back for War’ or ‘Iron Man 3’. ‘The Superpowers of the Bear’ studies how these mammals may prove vital to the future of humankind. Music is by Olivier Militon, who in 2016 was selected by Fimucinema for his music for the shortfilm ‘The Father’. In the documentary ‘700 Sharks’, we float in the waters off Polynesia in search of the greatest gathering of sharks on the planet as we are immersed in music by Julien Jouen, a musician with a great affinity for nature. The documentary category is rounded off with ‘The Perfect Gangster’ that revolves around the on-goings of the New York mafia, with music by Ryan Stevenson.
A total of 25 shortfilms will be competing for the FIMUCINEMA award for Best Original Score.

French composer Mathieu Alvado (nominated for ‘Rebirth’ and ‘Safety’) and the German composer Anne-Kathrin Dern (‘Broken’) are repeat nominees from abroad. Those joining the FIMUCINEMA family of nominees for the first time this year are Alberto Torres (‘Bicho’, ‘Vico Bergman’), Joseba Beristain (‘La Noche’), Raúl Galván (‘Las Aventuras de Sancho’), Kasem Fahmi (‘Demasiado Lejos para Escucharlo Todo’), Pablo Trujillo (‘Una Noche Cualquiera’), Jonas Lechenmayr (‘Tariq’), Daniel Trujillo (‘Nana’), Pau Loewe (‘La Guarida’) for national productions, and Alexandre Bouvier (‘L'Age d’Or’), Christy Carew (‘Virtually’), Jonathan Galland (‘The Ribbon’), and Yi Liu (‘HerT’) for foreign productions.
