The Betrayal (Nerakhoon) tells the story of Thavisouk Phrasavath and his family's journey from Laos to New York. The film is the first pure documentary Howard Shore has scored. The original music primarily features solo cello with a handful of graceful orchestral touches throughout. Posted here is the film's theatrical trailer, in which you can hear some of Shore's music.
