This romantic and thrilling story follows an Icelandic widower who, after learning his time may be limited, decides to search for his first love from 50 years before. His search takes him across continents as he pieces together why she disappeared all those years ago. Director Baltasar Kormákur (Beast, Everest) cast his son Palmi as young Kristófer.
“Ultimately, this is a uniquely powerful, humane film about people rebounding from the rubble of devastating losses, choosing courage and love to overcome grief. And there’s nothing more touching than seeing that in action.” — Courtney Howard, Variety
“Touch is a profoundly moving drama about love in many forms.” — Kristy Puchko, Mashable
