Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Score 

Whether reflecting the depth and emotion of its content and characters, propelling the film’s narrative forward, or playing counterpoint to the action upon the screen, musical scores play an essential role in the impact of a nonfiction film. This award celebrates those diverse musicians who used music to serve the film most beautifully and effectively. The inaugural honoree in this category was Max Richter for WALTZ WITH BASHIR (2009).
