The piano tuner of earthquakes
Set in the 18th century, in an imaginary world of twilight atmospheres and landscapes, this is the story of opera singer Malvina van Stille, murdered on stage by the terrible Dr. Emmanuel Droz. His intention is to create a “diabolic opera”, bringing Malvina back from the dead with the help of a piano tuner named Felisberto, who has to readjust some metal automatons Droz has installed around the gardens of his Villa to carry out the extravagant plan.
