Moses Sumney reveals that the soundtrack for “Is God Is” had a limited budget, which led them to use their own bodies to produce sounds
“This was an intimately made film, which is to say it had an intimate budget. We couldn’t do the classic film thing of scoring and bringing in a chamber group or an orchestra.
