Sicario (BBC1, Sat 11:55pm) released in 2015, is a gripping crime thriller directed by Denis Villeneuve that delves into the complex and brutal world of the Mexican drug cartels. The film follows Kate Macer (played by Emily Blunt), an idealistic FBI agent, who is enlisted by a government task force to aid in the escalating war against drugs at the border area between the U.S. and Mexico. The task force is led by the enigmatic Alejandro (Benicio Del Toro) and Matt Graver (Josh Brolin), whose unconventional methods test Kate's ethical boundaries. Set against a backdrop of intense violence and moral ambiguity, "Sicario" is a taut and intense exploration of the devastating impact of the drug war, the blurred lines between right and wrong, and the sacrifices made in the pursuit of justice.

The film's score, composed by Jóhann Jóhannsson (Arrival, The Theory of Everything, Mandy) is a key element in creating the movie's tense and ominous atmosphere. It is characterized by its minimalistic yet powerful approach, combining brooding, atmospheric soundscapes with pulsating rhythms and dissonant tones. Jóhannsson's music effectively underscores the film's themes of moral complexity and looming danger, often using a combination of electronic and orchestral elements to heighten the sense of unease and suspense. The score plays a pivotal role in driving the narrative forward and immersing the audience in the film's dark and foreboding world. Jóhannsson's work on "Sicario" was widely acclaimed, earning him nominations for several prestigious awards and solidifying his reputation as a master of contemporary film scoring.
