Ana, a 14-year-old girl, begins to perceive strange vibrations coming from her body. She received a metal prosthesis in her arm after an accident and believes that object is causing the unusual sounds. Determined to solve the mystery, she first tries composing a melody inspired by the tones she perceives to no avail. After an unexpected encounter with a young soldier, who interprets the tones as a possible series of Morse coded messages, Ana begins an intriguing and exciting journey to discover the meaning and specially the identity of the person behind the inexplicable pulsations. Winner of two Silver Biznagas at the 2024 Malaga Film Festival for Best Ibero American Film and Best Actress, The Major Tones marks Ingrid Pokropek's promising directorial debut. She offers a story that interweaves Ana’s ordinary teen life, refreshingly played by Sofía Clausen, with slightly supernatural elements where music and sound play a crucial role in the plot and become key to Ana's transformation during the adventure of a lifetime.
