Composed specifically for La Lettre V, the original score was shaped in close dialogue with the podcast’s voices and silences. Listening deeply to each episode, the emotional undercurrents guided the textures, pacing, and melodic fragments, allowing the music to accompany rather than overstate, to support without overwhelming.
Directed by Romane Carmon, the series moves beyond official narratives of the Liberation to foreground quieter, often uncomfortable stories — ordinary lives marked by ambiguity, banality, shame, or silence. Across four episodes, La Lettre V places these accounts side by side, revealing a collective history shaped as much by taboos and contradictions as by heroism. The original score and cover illustration were conceived as part of this sensitive reframing, resonating with the layered voices at its core.
Produced by Babelfish asbl with the support of the Fond d’Aide à la Création Radiophonique and in collaboration with Sonuma, the podcast was broadcast on Radio Campus Bruxelles and released on major podcast platforms. A sonic and visual creation designed as a space of resonance, where past and present meet at a human scale.
