​

An old violin graces different stages of Singapore over 80 years, its
music bearing witness to a young country’s transformation - from the bustling 1930s to the dark days of the Japanese Occupation, followed by the political awakening in the 60s that led to its independence and finally, present day.

​

"The Violin" is part of TIMESCAPES – a collection first officially screened as an anthology film in August 2018 at Seoul International Animated Film Festival, featuring 6 animated short films about life, love and the landscapes of Singapore past and present. With virtually no dialogue, each film is accompanied by a musical score and aims to show how our living landscapes and surroundings intertwine with our memories and imagination. Stories are based on Singapore’s past that spans 80 years.

​

Each short film in this anthology is also available individually.
