Dusty & stones
Yasmin’s first ever film score was for the feature length documentary Dusty & Stones. Dusty & Stones is a continent-crossing hero’s journey story told through country music. The documentary intimately chronicles the remarkable ride of cousins Gazi “Dusty” Simelane and Linda “Stones” Msibi, a determined duo of struggling country singers from the tiny African Kingdom of Eswatini (known as Swaziland at the time of filming) who long for their big break. The film has received several honors in various screenings and film festivals around the world, including the Jury Award for Best Music Documentary Feature at the Nashville Film Festival and the Jury Award for Best Documentary Feature at the Atlanta Film Festival.
