In TUNER, a piano tuner with exceptional hearing is unexpectedly drawn into the world of crime. Niki lives in a city that is often unbearably loud for him, where every sound can cut like pain. Together with his mentor Harry, he tries to keep his head above water in an existence that is becoming increasingly difficult to afford.
When criminals discover that Niki’s hearing is a unique talent for cracking safes, he ends up in a moral tension field between survival and crossing boundaries. At the same time, a sensitive story unfolds about loneliness, love, and the fragile beauty of sound.
Regisseur Daniel Roher weaves these worlds into an intense mix of crime film, character drama, and romance.
With an impressive sound design experience, the viewer is immersed in Niki’s perception, where music, silence, and chaos constantly collide.
Tuner is an original, layered film about listening, surviving, and the question of how far you can go with a special talent.
