Touch
director: Jen McGowan
Usa 2010
11 min
Two strangers make the most important connection of their lives while waiting for a train.
An ode to city life, TOUCH explores the universal themes of isolation and need for
community.
Busily on our ways, preoccupied with our own worries and checklists, normally the most we can offer another human being is a cursory glance, a stiff nod, a brief smile. Every day,millions of people pass one another by, mostly unaware of the other’s existence.
A true human connection is rarely ever made. But they do happen to us all and when they
do, they are fleeting but deep, sometimes forever changing. And we are reminded of how
much we share in common with the strangers that surround us.
