The master violin maker Nicola Bassotti commemorates his wife by cutting off her satin-like blonde hair, trimming it carefully, and making it into a piano brush; cutting her delicate wrist like white jade, and collecting it is still warm The blood, blending paint, smeared on the most proud work of his life - the violin that was originally intended to be given to his soon-to-be-born child. The dystocia killed both mother and child, and also made Nicholas lose his present happiness and future hope. If the shape and design of this violin condensed all his yearnings and expectations for the future; when he painted his wife's blood, he poured all his emotions into the world and named the violin: The Red Violin (The Red Violin) Red Violin)

1681, that is, red On the day the violin was born, Anna, like the moon, started her long unknown journey.
In 1792, the red violin came into the hands of Karpas Weiss, an orphan in the monastery, whose fate was the "Hanged Man" in the tarot card, a symbol of illness and self-sacrifice. The blond hair, small face, and pale complexion stemmed from congenital heart failure, often with melancholy, doubtful eyes and the temperament of the violin. When his small hand held this violin, the rigorous and delicate performance made everyone stop and listen. He rubbed his ears and temples with the violin. In addition to practicing day and night, he carefully kept the violin beside him when he was sleeping. Just when he could be selected for the royal family and perform for the prince, the prince fell in love with this violin and was determined to buy it. Weiss was so desperate that he suffered a heart attack and died in front of the prince before he could pull the strings. The red violin was buried with him until the gravedigger dug it up.

In 1893, the "devil" in the Tarot card symbolized lust and passion. The British musical genius Pope got this piano. His goddess of inspiration, Victoria, is a novelist. Her strong love and fiery body endow Pop with infinite inspiration. With a red violin, if God helps, Linxing's performance will be full of applause.
Captivating women always have an unpredictable spontaneity. Victoria decides to go to Russia to experience life for the characters in the novel. After just a few months of separation, Pop has been exhausted and uses opium to complete the coloring of her life. To no avail, passion always has to be compensated for by passion. When Victoria couldn't stand the pain of lovesickness and returned to Pop's house, what she heard was a series of more passionate and lifelike performances, and what she saw was Pop and a gypsy girl. The joy of cloud and rain.
The impulsive writer is furious, betrayal drives her insane, raises her pistol, hits the violin in the neck, and leaves Pop without looking back. Having lost his lover and musical instrument, Pope chose to commit suicide.
The red violin was brought back to China by Pop's Chinese servants, bought in a pawn shop...
