The Comfort of Your Unsustainable Lives
Featured in the soundtrack for Digger Cosmo Sheldrake’s track, The Comfort of Your Unsustainable Lives, serves as a poignant sonic centerpiece for the film. Known for his uncanny ability to weave bio-acoustic field recordings with organic instrumentation, Sheldrake creates a soundscape that is both whimsical and deeply haunting, echoing the tension between human consumption and the natural world.
Directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu, Digger is a satirical black comedy examining ecological grief and systemic accountability through the story of an oil magnate confronting the fallout of environmental catastrophe. Sheldrake’s score provides an atmospheric spine to Iñárritu’s bold narrative, grounding the movie's sharp social critique with an earthy, immersive musicality that heightens both its absurdities and its weight.
