***WINNER – Audience Award for Best International Feature – 2026 Florida Film Festival

 

In the consistently surprising Tuner, Oscar®-winning documentarian Daniel Roher's (Navalny) first narrative feature, Leo Woodall (Nuremberg) stars as Niki, a gifted young piano tuner with a unique auditory condition, who draws the attention of criminals who see his talents as useful for opening safes. With his once-promising musical career over, he works across New York with his mentor Harry (the one and only Dustin Hoffman), encountering a range of characters, including Ruthie, a spirited music composition student (Havana Rose Liu, Bottoms) with whom he forges an unexpected connection. 

 

Niki's safecracking work threatens his budding romance with Ruthie and pulls him into increasingly dangerous territory as he goes down the criminal rabbit hole. Constantly shape-shifting in mood and tone with its whip-smart script and delightful mix of genre elements—odd-couple friendship, tense high-concept thriller, and charming romance—Tuner features a compelling, star-making performance by Woodall and a lovely, late-career showcase for Hoffman, along with terrific supporting turns from Liu and screen veterans Tovah Feldshuh and Jean Reno that ensure this quick-witted heist flick maintains its perfect pitch. 


 


2025, 109 Minutes, Canada/USA, Directed Daniel Roher, Rated R

“Writer-director Daniel Roher’s ‘Tuner’ confirms that Leo Woodall is one of our most charismatic young stars.”
– Kyle Smith, Wall Street Journal

 

“The mix of genre elements is a delight, and the jazzy score, fast pace, and strong performances make much of the film sing.”
– Jason Gorber, RogerEbert.com

 

“Woodall’s best big-screen role to date and possibly his best full stop; he demonstrates real movie-star quality”
– Helen O'Hara, Time Out

 

“A throwback to well-written character-driven ’90s dramas like “Good Will Hunting” and “Shine,” or last year’s “Thelma” (which proves the endangered category ain’t dead yet).”
–  Peter Debruge, Variety
