FILM NOTES
A slick, musically charged heist thriller where every tiny sound could be the difference between escape and disaster.
Tuner is the narrative feature debut of Oscar‑winning documentarian Daniel Roher, best known for Navalny, who brings a documentarian’s attention to sound and texture into a fictional crime world. Leo Woodall plays Niki, a former piano prodigy living with hyperacusis, whose sensitive hearing makes everyday life painful but also gives him an almost supernatural ability to recognise and reproduce pitch. Working across the city with ageing master tuner Harry Horowitz (Dustin Hoffman), he finds a fragile rhythm—until a chance encounter with a crew of security‑guard thieves reveals that his ear can “listen” open vaults and safes.
As Niki begins moonlighting as a safecracker to cover spiralling medical bills and support Harry, he also falls for composition student Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu), carefully hiding his new criminal sideline. The film plays like a cross between Michael Mann‑style urban thriller and romantic drama, with intricate sound design turning ticking clocks, combination dials and subway hum into sources of both pleasure and dread. The R13‑style guidance reflects strong language, some violence, brief nudity and drug use, making it best suited to teen and adult audiences who enjoy character‑driven, stylish crime stories rather than all‑out action.
