On the eve of her wedding the beautiful opera singer Malvina is mysteriously killed and abducted by the malevolent Dr Droz. Felisberto, an innocent piano tuner, is summoned to Droz's secluded villa so that he can service the doctor's strange musical automatons and little by little he learns of Droz's plan to stage a "diabolical opera". The Piano Tuner Of Earthquakes is the breathtakingly beautiful second film from the brothers Quay, a strikingly original fairytale.
