432 Hz — the tuning frequency of old instruments, believed to resonate in harmony with the universe, to heal, to reflect the pure mathematical essence of nature. It is also the frequency of the soul of Tanya, the film’s delicate and extraordinary protagonist. Several years ago, unexpectedly even to herself, she began collecting and restoring antique pump organs — eventually opening Russia’s first harmonium museum in the very house where she spent a difficult childhood. Her concerts leave audiences transformed, their faces changed, as the breath of these instruments awakens emotions they have never felt before. Tanya says it is because old instruments are tuned differently; their vibrations touch the mind and soul in another way — a clarifying one. Always in motion, Tanya teaches at a music school, performs harmonium concerts in the local history museum, and appears at music festivals. She also sells souvenirs at the town market, which helps her restore the museum’s instruments. The market is a parallel universe — a Bosch-like world filled with remarkable characters, a place Tanya loves deeply. For her, that is where life unfolds, and music brings harmony to the chaos of existence.*
