No script. First-time actors. Shot on Film.
From Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker Sam Davis, The Singers is a genre-bending, heart-opening adaptation of a 19th-century short story by Ivan Turgenev — in which a group of downtrodden strangers in a rural pub are united by an impromptu sing-off.

With an ensemble cast pulled from the unlikeliest corners of TikTok and YouTube, The Singers celebrates raw talent and the healing power of vulnerability through art. It’s a cinematic ode to community, empathy, and finding transcendence in unexpected places.

Having premiered at major festivals including SXSW, Tribeca, and Indy Shorts (where it qualified for the Academy Awards®), this project is gaining national momentum — and your support helps us carry it further
