A reception for the movie “Touch”
2022/11/13
On November 13, the Embassy of Japan in Iceland hosted a reception at the Ambassador’s residence with the director Mr. Baltasar Kormákur, staff, actors of the film "TOUCH", as well as H.E.Ms. Lilja Alfreðsdóttir, Minister of Culture and Business Affairs, and more, as guests.
The romantic drama is set both during the pandemic - in 2020, and in the 1960s. The story follows Kristofer, a retired chef who used to work in a Japanese restaurant in London and spontaneously sets off on a journey to find the underlying cause of a mystery that has been haunting him ever since his Japanese lover Miko mysteriously vanished from London 50 years earlier.
In his opening remarks, Ambassador Suzuki expressed his hope that artistic exchange between the two countries will be further deepened.
