There Was a Piano-Tuner...


There Was a Piano-Tuner... is a 1979 Soviet feature comedy film directed by Vladimir Alenikov.

Plot

A modest and undistinguished eccentric tuner Ivan Ivanovich, who dreams of being a conductor, walks around the apartments of different people, tuning musical instruments. His way to work is always accompanied by adventures — either a neighbor with an expander climbs up to him, or an eccentric magician deceives him. Among his clients, there are also different people: this is a deaf old man who has all the notes sinking in, and a little chess player girl, whose relatives are constantly deciding who she should be in the future. One day the tuner, going to the addresses, meets the woman of his dreams — sublime and inaccessible.
