About this release
The Violinist is an animated drama produced by Robot Playground Media, scheduled for release on August 6, 2026. The film is set against the backdrop of Singapore in the late 1930s and the Japanese invasion of Malaya in 1941, drawing on a specific and often underrepresented chapter of Southeast Asian wartime history.
The story centers on Kai and Fei, childhood friends who share a passion for the violin. When Japan invades Malaya, Kai abandons his musical ambitions to join the anti-Japanese forces, and the two are separated. After the war ends, Kai goes missing, and Fei embarks on a search across Southeast Asia, performing as she travels and gathering whatever information she can about his fate. The narrative ultimately turns on a quieter question: whether Fei, as time passes without resolution, can forge an identity through her music independent of her search for Kai.
The film is produced by Robot Playground Media, a Singapore-based animation studio.
