An esteemed piano tuner and repairer, Jacobo leads an apparently happy life with his wife, Helena. His serene existence is thrown into a state of confusion when insomnia creeps in, and pianos that previously repaired miraculously overnight remain unfixed.
Paranoia and comedy can be so deliciously close together. Just witness this festival treat from Spain—the promising debut of a fresh filmmaking collective—which turns an insomniac’s hallucinations into a game that ties reality into a knot and stretches the cord tight. Visually rich magic realism.
