The Piano Tuner of Earthquakes

The Piano Tuner of Earthquakes

Executive produced by Terry Gilliam, 'The Piano Tuner of Earthquakes' is the breathtakingly beautiful and long-awaited second feature film from the Quay Brothers. On the eve of her wedding, the beautiful opera singer Malvina (Amira Casar, Catherine Breillat?s 'Anatomy of Hell') is mysteriously "killed" and abducted by the malevolent Dr. Droz (Gottfried John, Fassbinder?s 'The Marriage of Maria Braun'). Felisberto (Cesar Sarachu, The Quay?s 'Institute Benjamenta'), an innocent piano tuner, is summoned to Droz?s secluded villa to service his strange musical automatons. Little by little Felisberto learns of the doctor?s plans to stage a "diabolical opera"--and of Malvina?s fate. He secretly conspires to rescue her, only to become trapped himself in the web of Droz?s perverse universe.
