TOUCH is the story of Kyle Kalke, an astronomer since childhood, a high school "science nerd," who falls in love with flamboyant, outspoken, openhearted Zoe, who loves him back. When she is kidnapped and murdered, Kyle barricades himself by devoting himself more feverishly to the cosmos and losing himself in loveless sex. TOUCH is about a man in despair questioning whether there is any point to rediscovering passion, risking connection, groping toward the touch that will rekindle joy.
