The 36-year-old Swiss musician Fabian Römer was honoured with the German Film Critics Award in Berlin for his soundtrack for the film “Die Tür” by Anno Saul on February 15, 2010. The award is presented in nine categories, with the recipients thereof decided by the 300 members of the German Film Critics Association. This year’s main winner was Michael Haneke’s film “Das weisse Band”, with four awards.
Fabian Römer has composed the soundtracks for numerous Swiss film productions for television since 2006, including Tobias Ineichen’s “Jimmie”, Manuel Siebenmann’s “Nebenwirkungen” and Judith Kennel’s “Briefe und andere Geheimnisse”. He has recently completed the soundtrack for the fiction film “Insoupçonnable” by Gabriel Le Bomin, a French-Swiss coproduction of CAB Productions in Lausanne. The film features Laura Smet and Charles Berling in the leading roles and was shot in Geneva and Lyon last autumn.
