Touch

Directed by Baltasar Kormakur

After receiving an early-stage dementia diagnosis at the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kristofer leaves behind his Reykjavik home hoping to solve the greatest mystery of his life. 

As a student in London fifty years earlier, Kristofer fell in love with Miko, whose father owned the Japanese restaurant where they both worked. But one day Miko abruptly vanished. Now, as panic about the virus spreads around the world, Kristofer sets out to find his soulmate, resolving to follow her trail wherever it might lead—even back to Miko’s birthplace of Hiroshima—before his memories of their singular connection are lost forever in time. 

Based on the best-selling novel by Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson, Touch is a globe-spanning tale about the complexities of love and the unbreakable bonds that can tether two people through the ages.
