Touch (Short Film) Short Film 4 stars☆☆☆☆☆

3rd October 2016 by Sarah Leave a Comment

This film is only about 15 minutes long but in that short time frame it certainly packs an emotional punch. Actually, make that a wallop. I did cry, in fact I ugly-cried, but it’s really worth the resulting puffy red face and soggy tissues.
