Touch unfolds like a wo diary, depicting a jouey that is not only lengthy in terms of time but also profoundly emotional From the early days of the 1970s to the romantic streets of Paris and the mystical lands of Asia, the film’s narrative stretches across not just space but the essence of life and the heavy memories carried by the protagonist

The protagonist, an elderly man nearing the end of his life, rewinds time to search for his first love who vanished half a century ago While love stories are often paved with bricks leading to a happy ending, Touch opts for a distinctive and deeper approach The mystery surrounding the woman he seeks is not an easy puzzle to solve but a vivid picture of life that he must touch and feel with all his heart

The film works with memories as shards of a broken painting, not in a linear order but through the tumult of emotions and recollections The visuals of Touch are not merely beautiful landscapes of various countries but the stories behind them—tales of love, loss, and relentless search

Meanwhile, the performances in Touch are not just commendable but memorable as an artistic piece Especially the lead actor, who delivers a genuine and poignant portrayal of inteal struggle and unrelenting sorrow His performance is not just about a man searching for a lost memory but a soul grappling to maintain a connection with the past

Touch is far from being just a love story or a quest film In the way Pauline Kael would describe, it is a cinematic work rich in emotion, where every moment is meticulously crafted and refined Every part of the film is purposeful and significant

The ending of Touch is not the traditional conclusion you might expect from a romance film It is a culmination of all the emotions, memories, and dreams that have guided the protagonist to the final, decisive moments of his life The film leaves an impression not only with its narrative but also with a reflection on the true values of love and life
