Leo Woodall (The White Lotus) plays Niki, a gifted young former pianist whose music career was derailed by hyperacusis - a rare condition that makes everyday sounds overwhelmingly amplified and painful. To cope with the noisy city, he works quietly around New York alongside his seasoned mentor, Harry (played brilliantly by Dustin Hoffman), servicing Steinway pianos for the wealthy and ignorant elite. 


But Niki's life takes a sharp turn when he stumbles into an active burglary while working late at a client's home. Forced to become involved, he discovers that his hyper-sensitive hearing makes him exceptionally talented at cracking complex mechanical safes.


We saw this at a preview screening and loved its mix of tension and sound design. You'll physically feel just how Niki experieces sound as a result of the mixture of silences and sudden noise blasts, which immerses you in his life experience as the main character.


Woodall's character Leo is intensely likeable, as is Dustin Hoffman's as Leo's tuning mentor and general life-guide. This is a highly recommended heist and feel-good entertainment film.
