action
After 15 years of practice, the piano player Adrien is close to the goal of his dreams: He takes part in the competition for the Nernstein Prize, but fails. He falls into a deep hole and can no longer play the piano. A year later he worked as a piano tuner. His boss Simon is irritated that the demand for Adrien's service has increased significantly recently, and Adrien reveals his secret: He pretends to be blind. To do this, he has bought appropriate contact lenses , sunglasses and a white cane. His clients believe that his blindness makes his hearing particularly pronounced, so he does a particularly good job as a piano tuner. Adrien plays the role of the blind man so convincingly that people move around him without hesitation, believing that he cannot see them.
One day he goes to a couple for a piano tuning assignment. The woman initially refuses to let him into the apartment because her husband has not told her about the piano tuner's visit. Only when he tells her to be blind does she let him into the apartment. He goes ahead and slips in her husband's blood: the woman shot him in the temple with a machine tool. Adrien is shocked but pretends not to see anything. The woman leads him to the piano and takes his blood-smeared things. He starts to work, but suddenly it occurs to him that there is a notebook in one of his pockets that he wouldn't need if he were really blind. The woman returns to him and stands behind him. He starts to play the piano. You can see that the woman is holding the tool to his head with which she also killed her husband. Adrien suspects this and continues to play because as long as he is playing she will hardly kill him.
