Still from Call Me Puritan (2022)
CALL ME PURITAN (2022)
Directed by Archie Chew, CALL ME PURITAN emerged from Melbourne’s lockdown period, reflecting on the challenges of disconnecting from the digital world. The film follows a street preacher who advocates for the complete abandonment of the internet, a message that goes unheeded by society. As the preacher turns his plea toward the audience, Heys’ score captures the intensity and complexity of his convictions, blending elements that evoke both urgency and contemplation.
DOG (2021)
Written and directed by Timothy Walker, known for his work on the Stan Original films A Sunburnt Christmas and Christmas Ransom, DOG tells the story of a young man who believes he is, in fact, a dog and the journey his parents take to understand and accept this belief. Heys’ music for DOG reflects the film’s exploration of identity and acceptance, weaving together themes of emotional depth and lightness to support the narrative.
