“The War To End All Wars – The Movie” is the result of years of dedication, research, and collaboration with Yarnhub, a renowned animation studio specializing in historical storytelling.
This 67-minute-long animated musical motion picture takes viewers on a captivating journey through the harrowing and heroic stories of World War 1. It brings to life the remarkable and often untold experiences of those who lived through the Great War. Inspired by the narratives behind the songs of SABATON‘s tenth studio album, “The War To End All Wars”, the film blends historical accuracy with creative artistry, all supported by a powerful musical score. These stories carry deep meaning and are presented in a unique and engaging format. “The War To End All Wars – The Movie” also features animated and live-action appearances by band members.
“The War To End All Wars – The Movie” formed part of a significant charity initiative SABATON launched in 2023, titled “History Rocks”. The initiative was created to emphasise the importance of history and encourage communities to engage with and support local museums. As part of this effort, the band donated this animated film to 140 museums, ranging from small local gems to internationally recognized institutions across 30 territories. These museums showcased the film on their premises, with some organizing entire events around the screenings. The initiative not only boosted their global visibility but also connected them with a vibrant and enthusiastic new audience.
