Jun'ichi Fujisaku is credited as executive director for the film, with Shūhei Matsushita credited as director, and Yoshihiro Hiramine credited as assistant director. Fujisaku is also penning the script alongside Bun'Ō Fujisawa, and Mebachi is designing the characters. Yuki Kajiura is composing the film's theme song. Pony Canyon is producing.

Deemo debuted as an iOS and Android smartphone game in 2013. Rayark Games later released the game on the PlayStation Vita in Japan in 2015 with the title Deemo: Last Recital. PM Studios and Rising Star Games released the game on PS Vita in North America and Europe, respectively, in May 2017. The game received a release on the Nintendo Switch worldwide in September 2017.

A girl who fell from the skies and lost her past Deemo who plays the piano all alone in the world of the treehouse an accidental encounter between the two.

The music flows as the fingers hit the piano keys. The start of a fairytale journey has begun...
