From the director of YOUR SISTER'S SISTER comes this "touching" comedy. Abby is a sought after massage therapist and a free spirit, while her brother Paul thrives on routine and convention, running a flagging dental practice and co-dependently enlisting the assistance of his emotionally stunted daughter Jenny. Suddenly, transformation touches everyone. Abby develops an uncontrollable aversion to bodily contact, which not only makes her occupation impossible but severely hinders the passionate love life between her and her boyfriend. Meanwhile, rumors of Paul's healing touch begin to miraculously invigorate his practice as well as his life outside the office. As Abby navigates her way through a soul-searching identity crisis, her formerly skeptical brother discovers a whole new side of himself. "*Gentle, warmly human dramedy about a massage therapist who suddenly can't stand to touch anyone... and about how we all need more care and attention than we get. Rosemarie DeWitt is heartbreakingly lovely*." - MaryAnn Johanson, **Flick Filosopher**
