 Official press release: Le 12 Janvier 1956 paraissait dans le journal La Dépêche du Midi, le premier d'une série d'articles qui commençait ainsi : "la fameuse découverte du curé aux milliards de Renne le Château : d'un coup de pioche de l'abbé Saunière met au jour le trésor de Blanche de Castille". Depuis la parution de l'article, plus de 300 livres ont été publiés sur le sujet, en France, en Allemagne, au Royaume-Uni, aux Pays-Bas, aux USA, au Danemark, en Espagne, … Le film raconte comment, à partir de quelques faits réels, s'est construite une mythologie de trésors et de secrets où s'entrelacent Mérovingiens, les Cathares, le trésor du Temple de Jérusalem, les Wisigoths, le peintre Poussin, Jésus, Marie-Madeleine et tant d'autres.
Film de Claude Häim Avec la participation d'Alem Surre-Garcia, écrivain et conférencier de langues occitanes et française. Coproduction : France 3 Sud, Ecransud et Parallèles production

Film : Le Paradoxe du Trésor, 2005 Director : Claude Haïm Composer : Rudi Sordes Style : easy listening, ambient, classical Broadcasting : France 3, first broadcast on the 12th of Nov 2005, 15:55 Comments : This movie explains how one of the greatest twentieth century mystification started in the small french village of "Renne le Chateau", where a little priest started the legend that led to the Dan Brown "da Vinci Code" and its Prieuré de Sion. Claude is a very experienced documentary director and producer. It was fun to learn and adopt his graphical style. Here some pictures of the movie:

Film : J'aime la Vie, je fais du vélo je vais au cinéma, 2004-2005 Premiere in prestigeous independent theater "Le Balzac" on the Champs Elysées, Paris, January 2005 Director : Francis Fourcou Composer : Rudi Sordes Style : 50's Ballad, piano theme, Jazz/Soul, Orchestral Distribution : French Independent Distribution Network Comments : Francis signs here his second long documentary about the French independant movie distribution. Francis started writing and shooting this movie many years ago and features here for example the two Dardenne brothers
just before an Ovation for "Rosetta" (1999) in a Utopia theater. Writing the music of this smart movie on the economy of the independant theaters versus the modern commercial theaters was a great pleasure. Some scenes required some typical hollywood orchestral style. The whole score was fun to write and produce. |

Game : Floyd Catcher, 2004 Game Master : STEMax Designer : Day Dream Composer : Rudi Sordes Style : pseudo ethnic Distribution : Cellphone Game Platforms Comments: These very short music loops have to entertain the player after minutes of looping ... and it must be playable on a cellphone. A lot of fun on this project. |

Film : Play The Game, 2004-2005
Director : Stéphane Barbato Composer : Enio Moriconne Style : Orchestral Broadcasting : Festival de Clermont- Ferrand Comments: The production team was uncertain about Enio Moriconne scoring the whole movie and my work consisted of scoring parts of the movie. Here a sample of a key scene picked by the director for its expressivity. The guys are running under bullets ... the routine in the 1914-1918 World War I european trenches. Enio Moriconne could finaly score the whole thing ... and he beat me! His music is so deep and emotional ... |

Album: Si Fragile, 2004
2 titles scored by Rudi Sordes on this album Style : French Indies Caribean Zouk Love Comments: I've been working with Miss Lovely since 1998 and wrote for her Jazz/Soul songs that she sung for example on an opening set of DeeDee Bridgewater in Paris. She's going up in the charts. Cool thing after that many years ... |

Orchestral Work:
Heart Of Time
Personal work in progress ... This orchestral work is organized as a 12 song album. All tracks are 2/4 minutes long and the progression is about a zoom from the cosmos to a single individual who is born, grows, get married, discovers faith, dies and meets the light. My collaboration with DJ Flaz brings a spectacular electronic remix |

Film : Les Dessous de la Belle
Toulousaine, 2003 Director : Philippe Courtemanche Composer : Rudi Sordes Style : Jazz, Orchestral Comments: This movie was made possible by the cooperation of the Metro Company of Toulouse, France, who opened its plants to Courtemanche's team to film and document all the archeological discoveries made while the company digged the city's soil to build the second metro line. The director wanted two very different moods. An opening scene with a "traveling" on the city's river's bridges by night had to evoke today's town center. Older roman objects or sites had to be musically discribed by pseudo antic orchestral stuff. Assistant Bruno Gaultier died a few months later, leaving behind children and wife. Bruno was very professionnal and a real support. His wife was impressively courageaous. |

Film : Rétrospective Bourdieux, 2002
Director : Philippe Courtemanche Composer : Rudi Sordes Style : French musette, New Orlean's Jazz Broadcasting : France 3, La 5 Comments: This documentary on Socialogist Bourdieux's own social origin raised a difficult challenge for me. The Director wanted some 40's Old Jazz or French Musette things and that required some special attention to sound authentic. I finally got some nice short tracks of music that could have been village party music. Simple old stuff can be very challenging ... |

Film: Plus vrais que
nature, June 2001 Documentary on Birds Director: Martin Ducros Composer: Rudi Sordes, 2 tableaux musicaux Style: Baroque, Easy Listening Broadcasting: Canal Satellite, "Seasons" channel Comments: I rediscovered this documentary recently and realized that the pictures were very nice and like Martin told me ... I succeeded in talking about hunting almost without shooting pictures. |

Film: Adieu l'ancêtre, last
issue, May 2001 Best of the documentary sequel after a 4 years long success Director: Philippe Courtemanche Composer: Rudi Sordes, 13 musical tracks Style: Orchestral + electronic Broadcasting: France 3, national et régional ; La cinquième Comments: Philippe gave me a golden opportunity and a very precise time listing of the movie and we could score his "best of" in the short time he had. All inserts worked very well on his timing and the variety of sound style was a very interesting music composition challenge. |

Film: Le livre de compte d'Adrien, 2001 Comments: This was Francis and I's first collaboration. Francis is a very delicate documentary producer and director. His approach is always to withdraw behind the actors and the story he tells. He gathers tons of things he reads, he shoots ... and always brings unexpected real stories. |

CD-ROM: Rugby Vision, season 97-98 Comments: Old good stuff. My studio was "small" at that time, but the sound is pretty good ... I often use my own voice to add realism and emotion to my tracks.

I'm
a viking, composed for performer David Boostman. Sacha, this is a very funny track of a short movie that was never really cut that my brother played. Sacha is a bad boy ... and the movie was bad anyway but this track is one of my favourite works. |
