Singapore’s Robot Playground Media (Rpm) and Valencia-based co-producer TV On Producciones (Top) have commenced production on animated feature film “The Violinist,” it was revealed at the Asia TV Forum and Market.
The film was unveiled at a presentation attended by the representatives of Singapore’s Infocomm Media Development Authority (Imda) and the Spanish Embassy in Singapore.
Set during WWII-era Singapore and Malaya, the film will follow two young violinists, Kai and Fei, whose dreams are shattered with the Japanese invasion of Southeast Asia.

Their lives take vastly different paths over the span of decades as they try to hold onto the promise of performing a two-violin sonata together one day.
