A talented piano tuner (The White Lotus’ Leo Woodall in a breakout role) discovers that the patience and precision that allow him to excel at his day job are even more valuable when moonlighting as a safe cracker. Having scored an Oscar for Navalny, Daniel Roher shifts seamlessly into narrative filmmaking with this jazz-infused crime drama about love, loss, and the lengths we’ll go to for the people who matter most to us.
