A romantic and thrilling story that spans several decades and continents; TOUCH follows one widower's emotional journey to find his first love who disappeared 50 years ago, before his time runs out. "This is a love story, pure and simple and unashamedly emotional. Kormákur also understands the visual appeal of romance: it’s not just about the pillow talk or heady declarations of passion, it’s about the images, and he doesn’t stint us in that regard" The Guardian "A widower retraces his youth and finds that devastating truths can lurk below even our fondest recollections in this romantic drama from Icelandic director Baltasar Kormákur" The Observer "Touch rekindles a treacly genre that I didn’t realize I missed. Its tender performances and gut-punch reveals are classic tear-jerker ingredients" New York Times "The word “lovely” feels old-fashioned, but it’s appropriate here. This is a lovely film" The Film Stage "This film about two people who leave an irreversible touch on each other brought tears to my eyes." The Australian
