Music by Clarice Jensen (2024)
"With a striking soundtrack by US composer and cellist Clarice Jensen that builds through feedback loops into great ominous walls of sound, and a repeated visual insert of a range of bare hills rising from peat bogs that somehow ground this family drama in Ireland’s archaic, mythical past, A Want in Her is reminiscent, at times, of the work of Jonathan Glazer. But it’s too original and accomplished for such parallels to stick. And it ends with an emotional punch that will send audiences reeling." – Screen Daily on the Premiere at IDFA 2024
"At times set to ethereal synthesisers and other times evocative strings by Clarice Jensen, sequences unfold most vividly in the home in the present and the past, a place that Carten films from a distorted wide-angle as a dwelling that absorbs the emotions swirling between the two." – Cineuropa, on the Premiere at IDFA 2024

"Clarice Jensen’s unsettling electronic score commingles with the camera work to build a sense of achingly slow-burn tension. Abstract interstitial montages let off a bit of steam with a propulsive electro soundtrack, marking the passing of time with images of the menacing and the mundane.” – Los Angeles Times
"With sinuous edits incorporating some lovely dissolves, slow tracking shots gliding down the prison corridors and excellent use of a disquieting string and electronic score by Clarice Jensen, director Sealey confidently sets the wheels in motion for a psychological thriller ..." – The Hollywood Reporter

"Clarice Jensen conducts a symphony of torment and despair." – The Boston Herald
"There’s a thickness to the quiet in Identifying Features that starts to feel like a vise, and it’s aided by the unforced but churning pace of the editing and Clarice Jensen’s woozy, sparsely utilized score." – Los Angeles Times
"There’s a stillness and reserve to the filmmaking which mirrors Hernández’s self-contained central performance. Music is used infrequently, but when it does occur, either blasting from the radio of a tailgating vehicle, or in the mounting nervous tension of Clarice Jensen’s excellent score, it is punchily persuasive." – Screen Daily
