LAKESHORE RECORDS TO RELEASE SOUNDTRACK FOR 2007 SUNDANCE FILM
FESTIVAL FAVORITE UNDER THE SAME MOON

MUSIC COMPOSED BY GOLDEN GLOBET NOMINEE CARLO SILIOTTO
(March
102008- Los Angeles, CA) - Lakeshore Records will release the original motion
picture soundtrack for UNDER THE SAME MOON via iTunes on March 11th. The album
features original music by Carlo Siliotto (THE PUNISHER, NOMAD: THE WARRIOR).
Carlo Siliotto was born in Rome. He studied guitar and violin and later
composition at the Conservatory of Frosinone, under the guidance of Maestro
Daniele Paris. He was a founding member of the group "Canzoniere del Lazio",
with whom he adapted pop and traditional Italian music. In 1984 he decided to
focus his attention to writing film scores. Since then, Carlo has composed music
for over 70 films internationally including FLUKE, THE PUNISHER, and NOMAD: THE
WARRIOR, for which he earned his first Golden GlobeT nomination. His upcoming
projects include THE RAMEN GIRL and THE TREE OF LIFE
UNDER THE SAME MOON tells the parallel stories of nine-year-old Carlitos (Adrían
Alonso, THE MASK OF ZORRO) and his mother, Rosario (Kate del Castillo,
BORDERTOWN). In the hopes of providing a better life for her son, Rosario works
illegally in the U.S. while her mother cares for Carlitos back in Mexico.
Unexpected circumstances drive both Rosario and Carlitos to embark on their own
journeys in a desperate attempt to reunite. Along the way, mother and son face
challenges and obstacles but never lose hope that they will one day be together
again. Riggen's film is not only a heartwarming family story; she also offers
subtle commentary on the much-debated issue of illegal immigration
UNDER THE SAME MOON (LA MISMA LUNA) also stars Eugenio Derbez (PADRE NUESTRA),
Maya Zapata (THE THREE BURIALS OF MELQUIADES ESTRADA), Carmen Salinas, María
Rojo and Mario Almada with America Ferrera (UGLY BETTY), and features a cameo
appearance by the legendary norteño band Los Tigres del Norte.
Fox Searchlight presents UNDER THE SAME MOON, in theaters on March 21. The
Lakeshore Records recording will be available via iTunes on March 11, 2008.
